Hi guys. I discovered milky-oil in the gear-case and I'm fairly certain it's from water coming in at the prop seal and not from the top of the housing and so will pressure test without removing the leg to confirm. I guess if it does show oil leaking at the seal it doesn't mean the top end is tight but it will mean I have to change the seals. Would anyone know what seals those are exactly....1992 Force 120, and am I correct that there are two that can be changed... an outside and an inside one? I watched a video on how to remove them without special tools....tap two small holes opposite each other through the metal part of the seal and insert metal screws to which a vice grip pliers can be used to pull/tap/extract each seal. Does this sound about right? I guess you don't want to score the shaft when drilling the screw holes.

So I think I've found the part #'s...or at least narrowed it down. The Seal Kit for the 1992 Force 120 is FK-1203-1. There are a couple different part #'s for the two prop shaft seals I want to replace. The ones from a search on this site are F697555 (outer seal) and 12224 (inner seal). Other part #'s I've found are GLM: 85130 (inner) and 85530 (outer); and OEM: 26-76868 (inner) and 26-70081 (outer).

There were 3 types of lower units used that year.
Need a pic of your before I can give the right parts.
