"I would rebuild the units tha

"I would rebuild the units that had water in it, just buy the seal kit, new water pump and a good repair manual for it. Then when u have it back together I would pressure and leak check. Its not that hard to rebuild the upper unit or tilt unit"

"White milky oil indicates water has gotten into the gearcase and mixed with the oil while running. As Doug says, teardown the unit and inspect for damage. Replace any necessary parts and install all new seals and gaskets. Pressure/vacuum test, refill and go."
