Had a great day on the lake saturday, but started noticing the bilge kept running>> previous weekend, the hull stayed DRY.. thought maybe it was ballast bags, but they stayed full.
Dripless seal.. shouldnt be that? SO finally i opened the engine compartment to find water spraying out of water hose going into water pump.. it had been rubbing against the pulley on the alternator.. NICE...
DUCT TAPE to the rescue.. adjusted the hose to get it off the pulley, let it dry and put a few wraps of duct tape.. then some nylon reinforced tape.. all good to finish the day.
Now i gotta get a replacement.
Gonna check SkiDim.com.. Local indmar dealer's parts guy is out sick today.
Any other suggestions of where to get?? i am guessing this is not a "Stock" autoparts hose...
INDMAR 340 CAT engine..
