I have a 2000 volvo 4.3 sx and the other day I was running in deep water and the boat feels like it is running aground. When I pulled the boat out of the water it leaks oil through the prop. The outdrive never hit anything but feels like it is slipping or running into rocks. Any ideas? I was thinking about rebuilding the lower unit as well. Both bellows and gimbal bearing have just been replaced
