I just purchased a 1989 Johnson GT150 which supposedly just had the foot rebuilt, after being in the water for about two hours I checked the oil and it was full of water. I bought a repair manual and it shows a mechanical gearcase and a hydro mechanical gearcase. My question is how to tell the difference in the two. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

It is a Clymer Manual that I purchased from the local Marine
