The attached photo shows the fitting that bolts to the exhaust port of my manifold. It obviously performs the water injection function and is stamped with the Universal name so I believe it to be OEM. I have not seen this fitting in any other pictures of Atomic Four engines and hope that someone can explain if it has any function other than water injection. The exhaust hose runs down from this fitting to bilge level, then slightly upwards to the water lift muffler.
Also there is a plug with a square recess in the upper aft end of the fitting. Is this a clean out or inspection hole? Is there any periodic maintenance for this fitting? Thanks for supplying any info.
