Thank you oldboat1 for your quick response. Naturally I would like to fix the lower unit first if at all possible. It ran great last year for the few hours I had it in the water. Internals seem fine. Haven't checked the compression yet because I'm not sure how to ground the spark plugs...
Hello everyone!
I am new to boating but also very hands on when it comes to repairs.
To make this quick but thorough....
I have a 85TL79R (1979 85HP Johnson Evinrude) Gearcase Reference Parts
Just purchased last year but am already noticing two types of oil leaking from the lower unit...
