Re: Engine dies when weather is wet

Yup, I'd replace the heat riser valve to get it working. Did closing it improve the problem though?

You don't want to leave it closed permanently, I think you can burn exhaust valves that way. So a working one is a better choice!

I'm surprised the way the snorkel is, with no valve! It just mixes some warm air in?
