Default Re: Water In Lower Unit?

I bet the gaskets on the screws were bad, the top one was leaking fluid that's how I noticed it. I poured the fluid in to a clear soda bottle and it separted in less than 10 minutes only about a oz was in the fluid. The boat was out on Long Island Sound all day Friday and I ran it on the muffs friday to flush it and Saturday when I changed the water serpartor and there was no leak from the vent that I saw then..... I'm going to put new seals tommorrow and see what happens..
