Thanks for your reply.
If the heat exchanger is dirty will that cause water loss?

Another suggestion is to remove the exchange r and clean it. The tubes collect calcification and a wire pipe cleaner can clean it.

Patrick, check on eBay for the heat exchanger... You might find a bargain!

Patrick, I read somewhere that the cooling system doesn't work with out the thermostat installed. I was going to leave it out to make the engine run cooler, but had to put a new one in.

Hello,
My Catalina has been overheating. Universal Diesel 5424.
I removed the thermostat........it was corroded and wrapped with debris.
I removed and cleaned the internal water pump. Also lot of debris.
Put hose in engine. Water didn't flow but eventually it did. More debris.
now when I run the engine it is cool until I put on the radiator cap..........then it gets too hot and loses water.
Any thoughts?
Patrick
