    VRO res.

    ever since i topped off this oil tanks there seems to be a lot of oil slick in my
    bilge area, is it possible that while underway and slashing around can some oil
    escape the container thus causing a mess? i thought to myself it seems that i'm using a lot of oil cuz
    of where the oil level is now. yea i lost some oil and i see it in my bilage area ,not a shit load but
    evidence of it leaking from somewhere. your thoughts.

    Take the cap off and check the O ring under the cap.

    Also check the gasket or seal under the oil pickup assembly.

    oil spillage ...yea i think i may have filled it to much causing the over spill......and yes i gotta check the cap
    seal. any special seal?
