Default Maybe its the vents

Hi Blu,
Somewheres on this site someone pointed out that some of the vents are vulnerable to infiltration by water. The kind that sit below the rub rail can get water in them. Depending on how directly the tube goes to the vent, you could get water, but probably not so much as you noted. Some folks have moved the vent to a drier location, others have solved the issue--if that's your issue--by putting a small clamshell fitting over the vent itself. Good luck. Good thing you had the racor separator.
