While the engine is running and I rev it, I can see water seeping out between the head and the bolt. I had this happen once before on another bolt. I'm not sure if it's just loose, or if there is not supposed to be water there... in other words, if you were to take all the bolts out, start it up, and rev, would water come spewing out all over the place in a normal 2-cycle Rotax engine? I mean, it's water cooled, but is there water under those bolts? Do I just need to tighten it, or if there's water there, does that mean the head is cracked somewhere?
No it's never been left outside since I've had it. It's '96 and I've had it for like 8 years myself, always garaged, always winterized. And just started having this problem last year with another of the bolts, which I tried to tighten and snapped off (the head of the bolt). Got it out, replaced, and thought all was well, until this year when water seeping from another bolt.
