[C38] over heating

[tdtron at earthlink.net]

Hello Paul,

If I am understanding right, you are losing raw water from the raw water
pump and also fresh water from the engine?  I would suspect a leaking tube
in the heat exchanger as the first place to look.

> I have fresh water dissapering when I make power changes . At first I
thought I had a plugged seacock however that was not the problem. At 2800
rpr every thing seems fine with little water loss , as soon as I power down
the engin starts to overheat , seawater pumping ok although with the cover
off the pump there is backflow leakage with the seacock turned off. There
appears to be no leakage from anywhere . When I add water with the engine
off it slowly leaks away .
