HI, I've got another question about my new to me '63 Johnson Seahorse 10 HP model QD-24. After changing the lower unit oil(which there was only about an ounce or two in the lower unit), I was having trouble getting it to shift, so I took off the cover plate on the exhaust housing where the connector for the upper and lower shift rods join, and I noticed there was oil/water mix covering the shift rods and connector. Is this normal, or do I have a bad seal somewhere? If so, where might it be leaking? The guy I bought if from said he just replaced the impeller, so maybe he didn't seal everything up correctly, I'm not sure. Or, maybe this is normal, and I don't need to worry about it. Thanks for your help, Doug.
