Water leaking.

[Mr-Moe]

1988, 80 hp 3 cyl.

I have water leaking from the thermostat housing at the small weep hole. When I run the engine at above idle speed, is this normal or not?
Thanks

Not normal.----Replace poppit valve diaphragm or repair leak.

Thanks, just as I thought.​

Will get the poppet valve and thermostat, and necessary gaskets to repair.​
