Hi all, new to the forum...
I recently purchased a 1993 short shaft Tiller Mariner 9.9.
I immediatley changed the lower unit oil.. I ran it last Sat. & Sun.. water pumped great no issues, good compression.. My friend told me to check the lower unit oil again today to see if I had water in it.. he said if it was leaking that after time the water will seperate from the oil... sure enough there was about 1 oz of water that drained outta the lu. Lower unit oil was not milky though. Can you all give me advice on how to fix and what parts are needed? I am mechanically inclined and don't have the $$$ to take to the mechanic. Thanks Sam
