OX 66
2 stroke
250 Hp
SX 250 TXRY
Had water in drive
Purchased OEM Yamaha prop shaft seals , top seal , shift shaft seal
Never considered doing a pressure test too determine which seal is bad , jut changed them all
New screws and gaskets vent & drain
Pumped 12 PSI , did soapy water test no bubbles Held 12 psi over night
New gear oil
Installed drive , ran engine (drive ) in barrel , 45 minutes
Damn barrel had quite a bit of oil
drive had film of oil
top vent ( not pu vents ) seemed too have a dark film of oil around opening
dropped gear oil and it was milky
As I stated held 12 psi over night , no bubbles soapy test
Did not change O Ring on prop shaft carrier ,
If I had issue it would have not held pressure , ????
THOUGHTS - thanks
