Hi all,
alright, I need some help. I have a 1987 Sea Ray Sundancer 300 with OMC (Chevy) engines and outdrives. I am getting water leaking into the gimbal bearing area. I have replaced the bellows and outdrive gasket, but after about a year and a half, the bearing starts making noise and I remove the outdrive and have water intrusion, again. I have been dealing with this now for about 5 years and cannot find where it is leaking. ANY suggestions would be great. I currently have both engines removed for presevation work and thought now is a good time to figure out what might be causing this problem but I can't see how water is getting in there. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
