Hi there<br /><br />I had a problem today with the subject motor which I cannot find info in my manual on. I started to notice water coming out of the cowl, so when I removed the cowl I noticed a T fitting at the R/H top aft side of the engine that water was coming out of. One side has a line that goes to the back side of the engine and goes overboard. My problem is that I cannot locate what was connected to the other side of the T fitting, no line which should be connected can be found and my manual does not show water line routing.<br /><br />If someone could help it ould be appreciated.<br />I noticed the water coming out after my no oil light came on but I suspect it was the water socking the vro connector that caused the light to come on as after I disconnected the connector I noticed that it was wet.<br /><br />Help would be greatly appreciated.<br />Ratsirt

The other side of the tee either went to a water pressure guage line or was simply capped off and you lost the cap.If the ends are barbed and not threaded just find a new rubber cap and secure it with a clamp or tie/wrap.

If the fitting is in the exhaust cover port side of engine, it needs to be moved to top of engine, per a service bulletin, which you should fined by search this board. There are 3/4 other bulletins also.
