My 1989 Arriva 200 with 89 Force 125 is in the cottage garage for the winter. Am about to drain the lower end oil & replace but noticed when the trim was lowered so the skeg was on the floor some water came out of the propeller anode area. Poured some gear oil into the fill & vent plug at the top and a small amount of greenish oil also leaked out after the water was finished. Looks like some seals are in order. I was thinking of swapping out my 1:73 lower end anyway for an 85hp 2:1 lower end so this is as good of time as any. Need to measure to see if it is a 20 or 25 shaft. I have no serial # for this motor as it is rubbed off beyond recognition. It is a single exhaust lower end. Is this an issue when it comes to sourcing out a 2:1 lower end? Would a 1989-90 Force 120 dual exhaust be compatable also?
