Hey All -
I've got a new-to-me 13 ft whaler, with a beautiful '68 Evinrude Ski Twin 33 HP, that seems to have a leak in the gear case somewhere.
New to the outboard world. Based on what I've see in diagrams - thinking the leak may be at the shift rod o ring/bushing. Here is a quick video I did - https://youtu.be/3NLAQKj6hG4
What do you all think?
I’d reseal the gear case and replace o rings when fixing that issue. Just want to confirm I'm on the right track.
I did change the lower oil and it was milky when draining, no standing water, but milky. Would it be safe to run with the fresh oil and see how it does?
Thanks!
