'56 Johnson 7.5<br /><br />First off, earlier this spring I replaced all the seals on the lower unit. I checked the fluid last night and there is tons of water in there. When I did the reseal job I noticed the prop shaft has scoring on it. First question is could the scoring let the water in? Second question, is there any common mistake when replacing the seals/what the heck did I mess up on?<br /><br />Second problem, I just rebuilt the carb and ran it today. Idle is great (why I had to rebuild it in the first place), mid power is good, but now it doesn't rev up all the way. I adjusted the carb to gain the max rev's but it still doesn't go as fast as before the carb job. And yes, I did set the float height and all that fun stuff according to specs. Just for the info, I did do a tune up on the electrical system so I doubt it is that. Any ideas?<br /><br />Thanks guys. The carb problem isn't as frustrating as the lower unit. Carb was quick and easy to rebuilt, getting out all those little seals and O rings in the lower unit wasn't.
