I keep losing water from the engine i have run it at port for an hour and found no leaks, but as soon as i leave port and do aprrox 5 miles engine has used 3 ltrs of water, nothing in the bilge. , would it be a head gasket or possibly the ex manifold. thanks

Hi steve
your on the right lines.If there no coolant in the bilge and no hot water takeoffs then the coolant must be going out the exhaust?I would check the heatexchanger first its the main part where coolant and water can mix
good luck
