Hi my recently purchased early 80's 70hp 'Mercmar' (its a mongrel) runs well. However when started from cold it takes some time before water starts to flow through the 'tell tale' presumabley this is thermostaically controlled?
However, water droplets/vapour is ejected from two oblong slots at the top of the leg this discharge seem to be proportional to engine speed and also appears to be an exhaust type gas, is this normal?
I appreciate that the exhaust gases exit via the propellor.
Any guidance please.
Regards
