Impeller
Probably the most important part of your engine.
We found “smoke” coming out with the exhaust from our generator and wondered what it was. After a while I found that it was damp not smoke, meaning there was not enough water to cool the engine. So check the intake inlet and the impeller.
Then the same thing took place with the engine (beautiful 6 cylinder Perkins 135 HP!!) Again check the saltwater inlet and impeller and YES – this one hasn’t been changed for a long time.
