I'm going to replace my engine raw water intake soon. The one I have at the moment has a strainer mounted on top of the valve which is below the waterline (I think). When I fit the new one I'm thinking of having the strainer separate like the Vetus ones.
Vetus says it has to be mounted above the waterline which is fine but I'm wondering if this could create a syphon to the engine.
I don't have an anti syphon loop in my system and never had a problem. the exhaust exits the engine and is then a pretty flat to the exit on the hull.
Any thoughts?
