Thank you. Motot has been good. Even if "limping a little". Had it running about 36 mph at 5000 rpm for a moment this morning.

What exactly do you mean by oil in the transom?

[Frazer]

All around the bilge pump. Pretty fair amount. Been that way for a few years oddly enough. My dad just went with it and put more oil in it. When I get it on a trailer I may get it serviced. It hasn't had a check up in while.

So what's in the bilge that holds oil.

I had that issue one time, looked for split hoses, loose cap on tank, etc. turned out to be a spare gallon I carry under the starboard hatch had rubbed a hole in the container and was migrating to the bottom of the bilge

[Frazer]

Thanks. Will check that. Not sure the lines have ever been replaced. Planning on doing that this Fall along with the fuel lines. Thoughts on replacing the tank?

[Frazer]

Looks like the oil line might run through there

Could be a bad leak or just a greasy bilge that needs degreasing. If you keep her in the water she never fully drains. Pulling her out and tilt her up and run a hose into the forward bilge and see what comes out. You can disconnect your bilge float switch and squirt some dawn dish soap in there and fill the bilge with water, maybe 6 inches deep and take her for a spin sloshing it around to get more out.
