More of a raggy myself, so not often on this side 
But, I do get asked to sort the odd O/B for friends, two of whom have a T 40 on the back of a 21ft boat for poodling along the river.
Now, the tell-tail piddle seems to have increased considerably and a passer by at the dock suggested that there was a likely hood that it was not cooling the engine properly if it was that big. The exit is via quite a large orifice in the lower fixed cowling and looking inside, it appears that one needs to pull the engine to bits to see any part of this.
Engine is prob about 20yrs old and a 3-cyl two stroke. Normal use is at low power settings at 5/6 knots, due to speed limits on the river.
Any comments would be appreciated.
