1971 Chrysler 20hp-I drained the lower unit today and the oil coming out of the drain hole was dark brown but when it hit the drain pan it was solid gray. It had been sitting for two days undisturbed and before I drained it I pulled the drain plug and no water came out first, just dark brown oil. The drain pan had used engine oil in it about a1/4 inch deep. Does it not mix well with used engine oil?
There was no milky streaking in the pan, it was just solid gray colored. Also the LU oil has been in it for 25-30 years as it has been sitting unused for that long. I filled it with new oil and will check it after the next time I run it.
