Thanks. I'm probably gonna get the LU pressure tested to see where its leaking. If it is I may just re-seal it. I noticed the washers on the fill and vent screws look pretty shot so maybe thats the problem. When I drop the LU i will inspect the shirt rod. I'm hoping the previous owner may have replaced the shaft. If it looks shot then I may just run it till it fails on me (i fish only in Sandy hook bay in nice weather and have towboat ins) or dump it and get myself a new motor this spring before i put it in. Cash is the main factor in making that decision.... seems to always be unfortunatly.
