Hi everyone, having a little problem and would like to tap the knowledge of the best boating site on the web!
I have a 1995 120 HP Force outboard and have found water in the lower unit! When the motor has been tilted up for a while in the yard, I notice a drip of oil coming from the plate between the lower unit and prop. I have tightened the 2 nuts holding this plate on, but it still leaks. I cannot find this plate or gasket in my owner's manual. I think if I replace the gasket it will solve my problem, but I do not know what the plate is called. If anyone knows, I would appreciate passing it on to me! Also, am I correct in thinking this gasket being replaced will solve my problem? I think some fishing line may have gotten between the gasket and plate.
Thanks a lot, I need to get this fixed because I'm dying to go out fishing!
