Damn your making my job hard! Ok getting the water pan out and some olive oil... must be 100% pure Italian by the way... Yup just as I thought the oil is spreading and you have a case of the Meloki (Evil eye for you non-Italians) Ok just send me a years supply of rubber and any spare cash and you will be all set! GS hope it works out for you, boats can be a pain and costly! My dad has a 25 HP Suzuki four stroke and no problems yet except for some miner ones from that famous dealer in Wareham.
