I just put my engine back in the boat and put the out drive back on. Now all of the gear oil in my reservoir bottle ends up leaking into the bilge. So far I have checked:
The bottle, no leaks.
The hose to the thru-hull fitting & the fitting itself, no leaks.
I just can not find the leak. It appears like it is coming back into the boat through the gimble/shaft area. Is it possible the O-ring on the outdrive oil passage failed?
Thanks,
