    Volvo penta 5.0 gl not sucking water

    this is the most quick way to buying a new block. cold anti-freeze hits the thermostat, it closes, and maybe your exhaust gets antifreeze, however your block doesnt drain fully and you are winterized. if spending $30 on antifreeze and pouring into your motor makes you warm and fuzzy, then do...
