I have a gamefisher 1990's not exactly sure on year, I just did the impeller on it and the impeller seal and the transmission linkage seal are both fine. There is no oil leaking there. BUT there is oil leaking out of the water outlets. Can anyone tell me if it could be a cracked housing-if this is possible inside because there is nothing visible- or am I missing something?

Re: gamefisher problem

What color is the oil? Black oily crud would be exhaust residue, normal.<br /><br />Clean oil like in the lower unit would be a problem.

Well it looks light in color but still black looking but like its watered down.

Keep an eye on your lower unit lube. Unless it looks like a chocolate shake, what you are seeing may well be just unburned oil residue from the fuel mix.

Take a sniff,there is no mistaking the smell of gear oil.It may also be fogging oil if it is your first use since storage.Charlie
