Re: Cracked lower unit Yamaha 75 hp
That looks pretty nasty. I had a leg that had been welded by a previous owner that wasnt done all that well. Ended up having the seals go and getting water into the oil. As a side issue he had put the prop on without the spacers and there was a fair amount of corrosion to the extent that a mate and I couldnt get the prop off with sledgehammers! Ended up ditching the whole leg and getting another. If you weld it make sure it dosent get to hot to stuff the seals inside and keep an eye on the oil for water. If it is from corrosion as 99yam40 says, start looking for a new one.
