I have a 1996 Mercury 60 hp Big Foot with the following specs.
2 stroke
Model 60ELPTO
3 cyl
I had a starter solenoid go on out on Saturday. Pulled the boat out of the lake and back to the house. It sat overnight and I noticed that it has a slow leak of lower unit fluid. It has only leaked a few drops in the last 24 hours, but enough to be concerned. Its leaking out of the lower water intake hole, which seems like odd spot to leak lower unit fluid. Any ideas?
I'm pretty experienced with working on i/o's, but this boat is my first real adventure into outboards. Guess I'm going to become a boat mechanic one way or another!
I did find the online service manuals on here. Those should be a big help.
