Well it looks like I'll be putting mine up now. Gearcase has milky oil in it. I think it's just the shift shaft seal. No metal on the magnet at all & no water seperated out of the oil so my guess is I just was able to catch it early. Plenty of PM on these boats goes a LOOOOONNNNNG way!
Will do, thanks for the tip! I don't think I'm going to try to fix it before Saturday. I'd say I'm done for the year. Gives me time to start into projects. :same ole song
