hello to all, I have a 199ish Mercury 40hp 4 cylinder 2 stroke seriel # 0G26592.
just bought a tracker pro 18 and I used it 3 times.noticed it wasn't peeing right and at times would stop completely so I bought a water pump and impeller installed seemed all went well,hooked up rabbit ears started outboard peeing real strong but I did notice water coming out of this area on lower unit(see pic).is this normal? so i pulled the lower unit and I seen water droplets on the drive shaft from above water pump.Im a newb when it comes to outboards but I work on vehicle motors and I use to work on the older 2 stroke dirt bikes back in the 80's
thanks for any advise
