Hello thanks for reading
Experienced aito/truck wrench newbe boat wrench just bought a 89 Glastron Sierra 195 4.3 175 hp alpha 1 outdrive thats having a few issues. Second time out I hit a stump or something and bent the lower unit output shaft tore up the prop, skag ect... Ive replaced the lower unit, put a new prop on and the last time I was out I notice yoohoo (oil/water mix) coming out of a small hole inside the boat, just above where the driveshaft goes into the out drive, looks like maybe a vent for the bellows ?? There isn't a whole lot of yoohoo coming out ans sometimes a few drops of clear water are present. The flow of yoohoo increases with RPM's and occurs both on the muffs and on the lake. lower unit fluid looks good, I've greased the gimble...any ideas on what it could be or is and how to best approach the repair, tech manual links and or pic would be apprieciated. I got the boat for what I guess to be a good price, but I'm already 550 into it and summer hasn't even begun... thanks Deadeye
