Motor has been down for over 24 hours and water is still slowly seeping out of this area (under prop, above skeg… not from the nut but the piece in the pic). I did find some debris in the speedo hole that I removed (recommended by another member), but water came out of the speedo hole and intake, not this area.
what is this area, and why would water be coming from it? This area is left out of every parts diagram I can find. Usually I drain all water with motor down for just a few minutes and it stops…we are going on 36 hours now and it’s still seeping from this area (like a drop every 60 minutes)
is this something to worry about?
