First post, thanks for your patience and excuse my ignorance.
I was crawling over an
island packet today and notice this device leaking into the
bilge. It is located on the forward aspect of the
engine bay bulkhead. Aft of the
fuel tank. Sitting only 300 mm below the
saloon flooring.
The
engine had been run before I got there, it wasn't actively leaking but after a couple of hours of engine running it had leaked a lot more. Clean
salt water leak.
My guess is its an antisiphon valve or vent for the wet
exhaust that maybe supposed to leak a bit when running. Am I close?
I'm talking about the green topped device with the large wingnut.
Any knowledge is appreciated. Stupidly I didn't watch it with the engine running nor read the label on the side.
Regards.
