[QUOTE="PATRIOT, post: 413449, member: 8891"] I'm leaning towards the water pump lower oil seal myself now. I just didn't want to start throwing parts at it. That seal has me puzzled because it shows no sign of leaking when I pressurize the gearcase or when I pull a vacuum. I cannot see how water under water pump pressure can make it's way to the seal though?? One last thing I'm going to try today is draining and cleaning the gearcase (not refilling), remove the oil drain plug, and run the engine (in neutral) on the fake-lake for a while and see how much water comes out. Stay tuned. [/QUOTE]
