Re: water spray between lower unit and midsectiom
That could depend on your motor. Please always tell the forum what motor you're dealing with.
If it is a 1963 75hp, then some leakage at that joint is not harmful. However, I'm trying to visualize this happening and I can only see that that joint is somehow out of the water in order for you to see the spray. You should be sure that the water level is at least as high as the water pump before operating the motor.
