I am not familiar with the Composite Ocean Series drives. I would recommend purchasing a Seloc manual for your engine / drive. I would also download the appropriate owner's service manual from Volvo at:
http://www.volvo.com/volvopenta/global/en-gb/marine_leisure_engines/engines/out_ of_production_engines/out_of_production_engines.htm
It is never normal for oil to 'leak' from an outdrive. I would not recommend leaving the outdrive in the UP position during winter storage. Rain water can enter cavities of the outdrive (especially above the skeg, around the propeller shaft housing), pool and then freeze. The expansion can crack the housing thereby making it possible for water to enter, or oil to leave the drive.
I would top off the drive with oil, run it, then drain some oil to ensure water has not entered. Keep a close eye on the oil level. I suspect there is a leak somewhere...
Good luck. |
