Hi, my 1970 johnson 20hp has been leaving a film on the water, thought it might be gas but i took the hood off and didnt see any gas leaks from the carb or fuel line....pretty dry under the hood. so then i started thinking my lower unit must not be sealed good so i drained it out and there is no water in the lube. the film shows up on the water when i stop to fish, and it keeps showing up for a few minutes then it goes away after i have sat without it running for a while. any ideas what this petroleum film on the water could be from? i was planning on resealing the lower unit but the grease had no water in it. Thanks, Dennis
