    Hey everyone. I have a water leak coming out of both my aftercoolers. It’s leaking out of the check valve or condensation drain on the bottom of the aftercoolers. Starboard is worst than the port. Port being more like a sprinkle and the starboard more like a constant trickle of water. Could this be a good indicator for a damaged core?

    2———-Last time your aftercoolers were off the engine and serviced per my protocols? 

     

    3— Vintage of the engines– Years in service and total hours
