Gear oil was milky and I drained it and filled with new stuff almost immediately after it emptied. Just got it back from the Mech who did the shift shaft, drive shaft seals and water pump, pressure tested it. Ran it twice and found milky gear oil. Brought it back he pressure tested it again while I was standing there. It held 15 psi for 15 minutes and he sprayed the prop shaft and bearing carrier w/ soapy water to look for leaks non found. He said the milk must have come from residual milky oil that was stuck in the carrier bearing. Sent me on my way.Who agrees? Disagrees?
