I wonder if it has to do with the pesky leak whose source I could never find (see this thread http://www.moyermarineforum.com/foru...ad.php?t=11118 )

Next time at the boat I will investigate and report what I find.

THANK YOU!
Well, I did some work on the boat yesterday and checked. Sure enough, there was unmistakably coolant under the elbow at the top of the manifold. I tried to find where it came from but could not find anything. The metal seems to be intact, I don't think there either of the two connections leaks, and the hose if fairly new.

I tightened the hose clamp a bit more (it was pretty tight already). Then I put a piece of white paper under the connection. Today it was dry.

So, I don't know what is happening. Have to keep an eye on it.
