I have a 97 3.0 LX in a 19' Sea Pro walkaround and over the last 6 months or so I've had a couple of problems that seemed to develop concurrently. My v belts are wearing out very quickly (within a couple outings) and I am also getting a good bit of oil that is leaking from somewhere into the bilge. I don't see any visible leaks on the exposed portions of the engine. The belts are stretching out (prompting retensioning), wearing, and snapping way more quickly than they should. Since the problems developed in parallel I'm thinking there is a relationship. Thx in advance for any thoughts you all might have as to the cause of this. Fishing is getting better as we speak....!
