2001 aluminum Suntracker deckboat with a 4.3L Alpha 1. I had the plywood transom insert replaced spring before last. That stopped all leaks. Since then it started to leak a little more as time passed. It's probably up to 2-4 gallons in 4 hours lake time now. Well, some lazy mechanic in the boat shop left the right rear engine mount bolt loose with no nut on it or in the bilge. You know he had to know it and let me have it back that way. I found the loose mount recently and was able to work a nut into the slot and realign the engine. All that is in a previous post. Is it possible that the loose mount moved the assembly on the front and rear of the transom around enough to start the leak and can I check and tighten these nuts without pulling the engine? How many are there and where are they located around this assembly? Thanks, Cliff
