I brought the dinghy home and while winterizing the motor drained the lower unit to find milky fluid - surely, the unit leaked and has salt water in it.
I refilled it with new oil while I figure out what to do with it. I have two spare lowers so I'm not without a motor, but I wonder:
All suggestions welcome!
Thanks,

I refilled it with new oil while I figure out what to do with it. I have two spare lowers so I'm not without a motor, but I wonder:
- how to protect and preserve the lower before rebuilding it?
- what needs rebuilding - prop seal?
All suggestions welcome!
Thanks,
