Hi Bernd, Per my and others' earlier posts, most likely it is the rubber end caps on the heat exchanger or the heat exchanger itself. But thinking about it more, how do you know it is salt water and

No intercooler, oil cooler or transmission cooler on this engine. Has to be either the rubber end caps on the heat exchanger with their two hose clamps or a leak inside the heat exchanger tubes.

Brend, As others havealready suggested, the heat exchanger is the most likely culprit. You have ahole somewhere. Either in a seal or a failure in the exchanger itself. Thiswould be your best case

Hi Bernd, It will be a seal that separates the two water streams. The TMD 22 volvos and different heat exchangers on different engines so cant be definitive but investigate all the

Bernd, Seawater should only come in close proximity to coolant (sweat water) inside the heat exchanger. There has to be a leak in there somewhere. How did you conduct the pressure test? -- Mark
