First of all I have a 5.7 L mercruiser 1996 and alpha one gen 2 lower unit with an oil reservoir.
Over the summer I have slowly been losing oil in the reservoir. I have put maybe 15 hours on the boat this summer. It went from the full line nearly to the fill line following the four or five outings this summer.
Is this normal for the lower unit to use oil like this or do I likely have a leak somewhere? I have never seen oil in the engine compartment or on the floor.
Any suggestions?
