there's the difference. That's from using the motor 4days in the water and ran about 2hrs a day. I don't see water on top of the oil it's just a creamy looking color. Maybe it's supposed too look like that I don't know. I would think it should still look new after that short of a time. It drained slow too but it went down to minus 2 Celsius last night.

When I changed the impeller last yr the rubber housing for the water pump looked a bit chewed. Could that cause water in the lower unit?

So then water should of came out before oil right? It just ran out slow. I thought maybe some water came out of the top screw when I took it out. Could of just been me tho. So is that what the oil should look like after 4 days? I no you no what your talking about so whatever you can tell me is appreciated.

Also should I put in new washers? I only used them once

I'd say about 9/half Oz maybe 10oz with the leftover drips in the dish and motor. It's a plastic measure cup but it's see thru. The wife will be pissed enough about me using this.

Should be about 11 ounces.

Should be about 11 ounces.

Ok so I guess that no water is getting in then or there would be more right? Why such a difference in color? It a 2000 25hp 3cylinder Johnson long shaft by the way.

How do I pressure test? If you don't mind.

Best to run to your trusted dealer I think.
