The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
Water is leaking into the boat around the motor causing the pump to come on. I was told that it needed a Trundel bearing and boot. Does any one know how to fix this problem? Thank you.
It sounds like the u- joint bellows have gotten a hole in them causing your leak and also taking out the gimball bearing and in all likelyhood the u-joints as well.Can be a frustrating job.Are you up to it?
Bellows are a really common maintenance item on Mercruiser stern drives. It is a really tedious job and very difficult without the right tools. If you can pay someone else to do it I would highly recommend it.
