[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 438691, member: 13599"] Legally, I am not qualified to give such advice on outboards. others more experienced than myself can give you more accurate information. I have probably had a dozen or more similar issues with water in the oil (we all will, sooner or later) and the way I look at it, it depends on how long you operate it and at what speeds. many members here have bought outboards that had milky oil - - - and there is no way to tell WHEN it started leaking, how LONG the problem has existed, and how heavy the seller ran his motor..... just too many variables to give an educated answer. BUT - if after getting the gasket issue resolved and the next time you run it, and there is still milky oil, you may have a leaking seal somewhere in the mix. Note: finding milky oil is a [i]LOT[/i] better than finding no oil at all !!!!!!!!!!!! jus my Dos Centavos . [/QUOTE]
