Hello,<br /><br />I was recently running my mercury on muffs, but figured that I would fill up a bucket and run it to see if it got better water pressure. It ran quite a bit better...<br /><br />I took it out of the water and came back the next day ... and I am seeing lower unit oil now coming out of a small pinhole twards the front of the lower unit. Crap ... I don't want to replace the lower unit on this .... <br /><br />I am afraid that it is too close to the gears to try to weld ... but then again I don't know much about welding. I was wondering if I should try to get this welded ... or is there something that I can do to patch this pinhole ? <br /><br />Is there a lot of pressure in the lower unit ?<br /><br />Well any comments would be appreciated ... thanks.
