my 2005 Moomba LSV seems to be using more fuel than normal. has anyone heard of the fuel pump leaking into the cooling water causing this issue?

thanks

Doesn’t seem physically possible.

That would be unburnt gas.

Fuel system and water system are completely separate. At no point do they ever cross paths.

The fuel system - Tank - Filter - Pump - Injectors - Carb - Cylinder - Depending if you have EFI or Carb

Water - Lake - Impeller - Water Pump - Block - Heads - Exhaust - Lake

Both paths may not be 100% but you get the gist.

Water can Mix with Fuel - Head Gasket Blown

Fuel Can Not mix in Water Path at all.
