All
For all intents and purposes, my 96 Yamaha 50hp 4 stroke runs fine, doesn't overheat, etc. The problem I am seeing is when I change the oil, it comes out looking like a chocolate milkshake. After the oil change, it takes a while (4 trips or so) for this to redevelop.
Any ideas? I am thinking water is getting in the oil somehow, but it can't be much volume. I am going to do a compression and leakdown test this weekend.
Thanks in advance
