There have been quite a few threads here and elsewhere, reporting that milky oil issue on almost new motors, (9.8hp 4 stroke) but none ever reported what the final findings and.or resolution was.... the closest one to doing it was this one:2017 9.8 4 stroke with water in the oil after 10 hours of breakin (marineengine.com) mentioning "gunk on oil pick up tube".
Where is the oil pick up tube? Has anyone else made any findings on this.
For the record, my motor has very low hours, look brand spanking new under the cover, a mechanic replaced all the power gaskets, including head, and took it to a machine shop where the block was deeemed in good shape (not sure what they did ot what that means).
Any input appreciated, thanks.
