Hello
After I disassembled the lower unit I noticed that water with rust came out of it. After a pressure test I noticed that the gasket from the transmission shaft was broken. After I replaced it and did an 18 psi leak test and also put it in a barrel with water the test did not indicate an air leak.
After that I filled with water again and let the engine work in gear when I drained the oil once more the oil came out the same color and there seemed to be signs of water ingress
I did a pressure test again and everything seemed fine.
what did i miss Where does the water come from?
The engine is an engine that has been standing for quite a long time and was neglected, could there be excess water and dirt left in the lower unit? I haven't disassembled the flapper and bearings yet.
The vacuum test seals are also checked.
I would be happy to help with the problem.
Thank you
