    Oil water mix everywhere.

    The starboard side riser has rust where it joins the manifold. System has a lot of rust in it. Used a endoscope on the cylinders. The only one that shows water intrusion is #6. Going to compression all next. Boat was winterized and used a bilge heater.

    Oil water mix everywhere.

    91 StarCraft Eurosport 5.0LX Alpha one Gen two. When I first got it, ran with the muffs and found a out leak from the out drive. Repaired that and found water mix in the outdrive oil.
