Hi,
New to this forum and have an issue that i am hoping someone can direct me in the right direction. I have an 87 Bayliner Capri cuddy with an OMC 3.0 140HP and cobra outdrive. The engine runs fine, no depletion of oil when i check the dipstick both hot and cold. No smoke. No blowby. I have oil in my bildge though. I dont see any apparent leaks anywhere? I do notice that my outdrive when lifted, after about 24 hours will be in the down position. Could the oil in the bildge be hydrolic oil fron the lift pump? How can i tell if its engine or hydrolic oil? Where do i check? I dont see a place to check the trim motor oil level. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
