I recently got a fixer upper Santana 3030 with an old Yanmar 1GM10.
Recently started getting a dark liguid discharge out the exhaust and RPMs dropped from 3000 to 2400 at full throttle. Then after 10 minutes of running at 2400 rpm, water over temp alarm sounded. Very little smoke. Excellent water flow out of the exhaust. Let some of the exhaust into a bucket, and looks like blackish water.
Pulled the mixer elbow. It looked clean, just a little soot. To my surprise, found diesel fuel where mixer connects to the engine.
No water in the oil.
Not using any oil.
Sure could use some help getting to the bottom of this problem.
