Our previous Volvo Penta D2-75 was damaged as a result of members stepping or kneeling on the top of the motor while accessing
saildrive dip-stick
salt water strainer
coolant reservoir
This practice resulted in damage to the heat exchanger cap flange (see photos below).
DO NOT STEP or KNEEL on any part of the engine for any reason. The resulting damage can cause engine failure!! Cost of repairs and inconvenience will be met by the responsible skipper.
