I removed the lower unit from an alpha 1 gen 2 Mercruiser on my boat today and the speedo tube was filled with gear lube. Is this normal? My other boat has the first generation, and I dont remember seeing one of these tubes. Plus, the boat (w/ the gen2) has a plastic spigot for the speedo on the transom; do I need to reattach it, or can I just block it off with a fitting :confused:
