The Volvo MD40 was not putting out as much exhaust H20 as it did / should.
Went for a swim and checked that nothing [e.g. a plastic bag] had been sucked into the engine cooling raw water intake ... all clear.
Checked all hoses ~ all clear / tight / no leaks.
Removed 1" silt / sand from the bottom of the water strainer.
Replaced the water pump impeller ~ it was all there, no vanes missing.
Now, it's worse than before ~ not a drop coming out of the tail pipe!
Any suggestions much appreciated.
Thanks ...
