Hello everyone!
I am new to the forum and am thankful there is a place to get most of my stupid questions answered! I have a 71 SeaRay with a Merc 165 I/O. Recently I changed my outdrive oil, than ran the boat out of water with water muffs. About a day later I went to throw a new felt washer on the outdrive drain plug and when some of the oil leaked out I noticed it was milky. So my question is this, I am getting water in the oil when running the boat out water, just using water muffs. Could this be a leak in the water pump housing or where is my best place to start looking?
