You need antifreeze for winter storage in climates which freeze. Plumbing
antifreeze is fine as it's biodegradable.

Yeah, but they're not the ones crawling around an
engine looking for leaks. It's good that they
have the info though, so they can direct the guy on what needs to be done.

For several winters, I was loosing approx. a cup of engine
antifreeze..only in the winter, not during the sailing season.
I placed white paper towel in plastic trays under the enginefound
the location of the leakturned out to be at a loose hose
connection.tighten the SS clamps
You could also try arranging some white paper towels on a cookie sheet or bits
of plywood under the engine. Pumps are a particular candidate for suspicion in
my opinion, especially when temperature changes appear to be a factor.

Thanks very much. Yes it's a fresh water-cooled A4. Joseph, I am going to
check the sump near the mast step too, but based on where it's pooling I think
it's coming from the bilge just forward of the motor under the cabin sole - the
hardest spot to reach.

My A4 is fresh water cooled . If you have Anti Freeze in your motor . I am
guessing that it is a closed system . You can pressure test your engine. There
should be a heat exchanger on the engine . There is a sump under your mast step

I have a similar problem.every year / winter I loose engine coolant into
the 'after bilge'. All hoses replaced. Still happens. Haven't found the
source of the leak yet.Any recommendations for coolant dyes? Probably less

Hah! Thanks for the reply. But I have the original gas motor, so no
diesel on board. It's definitely engine coolant - has the unmistakable
smell.

Joe and Joel - thank you guys. Apologies, I was on "digest mode", so I
didn't see your responses until now. I know it's engine coolant because as
Joe said - "nothing else on the boat looks like it". Joel, I have a
feeling you're right about the source. I think there was coolant in the
aft part
Replying to my own thread again here.. I've read a few times online that
people sometimes add antifreeze to a wet bilge during the winter. Now I'm
wondering if there is some residual antifreeze left in the aft portion of
my bilge from the previous owner (I bought the boat in Oct), and it's being

Just a wild guess:
Someone spilled coolant at one point that is trapped. Enough rain water gets
in the bilge to reach the coolant and some of it ends up in the sump.

Hey everyone,
Thank you for the responses last week about my tiller - which I went out to
observe/fix today and then got distracted by another issue - c'est la vie.
Sometimes after heavy precipitation I find engine coolant in my bilge.
This ONLY happens after heavy precip - like last week here in
