I have a 1987 Evinrude 48spl, well when I first bought the boat back in June the first thing I did was drain the
lower unit oil. Not very familiar with boats at the time you guys confirmed it was the dreaded water in the oil. I have since replaced the lower unit oil and still have the dreaded milky oil. I have been replacing it ever 3-4 trips so that I keep fresh oil down there. Rather than take the motor in to get repaired I would like to do it myself so that I can get familiar with my motor. In regards to water entering the lower unit, where would it be coming in from and what would I need to replace so that I don't have to deal with this problem. I really appreciate your
help and knowledge.
