I have a 2003 Glastron 175sx with a Volvo Penta inboard motor.
I have noticed a sheen of oil/gas runoff when I am flushing the motor with ear muffs and fresh water, even when the engine is off & being flushed. I notice the same amount of runoff when I am flushing with ear muffs and the engine running (in the driveway).
I also notice a sheen trailing behind the boat when I am in the water and have the motor running, I can only see it when I am idle, too hard to tell if it's happening while I'm moving. Is this normal? Is something leaking? Does it need repairs or maintenance?
Thanks for your help in advance!
