I just bought a 2000 pontoon boat with a Johnson 50hp 2 stroke. (without test driving it).
I had a cavitation problem so I bought a new prop thinking the hub was spinning, but it wasn't the prop causing problem.
when changing the gear oil I noticed there is water in the oil.
1). can water in the gear oil cause the prop to spin (cavitate)? it only does it at 3/4 throttle and higher.
thanks for any help...
