I have a 1964 Evinrude 5.5 hp Fisherman and it runs like a Swiss watch. The problem is that everytime I take it out it gets water in the lower unit. Our local pro told me that as long as I change out lube each time that it should run forever. Is there any truth to this? He also said that by trying to re-seal I could cause irrepairable damage rendering the motor useless. All input is appreciated.
