40 hrs on merc 8.2 with v-dri

40 hrs on merc 8.2 with v-drives and max rise possible still getting water in from manifold even went to crusader manifolds instead of merc style. Any input would help.
 
" Did you add the Crusader &#3

" Did you add the Crusader "Gutter Plates"? These plates go between the manifold and riser and have a lip which pertrudes into the exhaust passage. When the elbows cool and condensate, the condensation runs down and collects on lip, or gutter. It is then burned off when the engine is restarted. It has proved so successful that Merc has copied the idea. They call them "Turbulators", but the principal is the same.

Good luck. "
 
Thanks Rick do the gutter pla

Thanks Rick do the gutter plates come with the crusader manifolds when bought new
