inside the Fiberglass exhaust.
Does anyone know what's inside a fiberglass exhaust on an inboard ski boat? Baffles? Suppressors? . I own a '93 Ski Brendella, restored it, new engine, half cooling system, water pump etc. I just had both manifolds and risers changed, yet the starboard exhaust side is running hot 160 plus degrees after about 20mns, which is at least 30 degrees more than the port side. There are no obstructions/clogs that I can find in any of the hoses etc. Problem started with a blown exhaust hose (3.5"), which I replaced. I am hearing a small rattle in the starboard fiberglass exhaust portion of the system and wondered if something could be loose inside and creating some back pressure or trapping gases and water. Very puzzling... Thanks in advance for your comments.
