Had the boat with '91 90hp Johnson o/b for aboiut 2 weeks and its running great. It was recommended to run a can of seafoam every now and then. Poured full 20gallon tank and ran it for a while. Had boat docked with prop out of the water for a while, then came back to some oily substance coming out of the shaft housing, where it meeets the cowl. I have searched on here and read that maybe its just stuff that was cleaned from the seafoam, and/or maybe the seafoam cracked a seal? It is think like oil, not runnier like fuel. Ran the boat and it ran fine, smoked a little at first crank like it always does and didn't seam to leak anymore while it ran. Going to check it again when i get home. Should I be worried/ and or do something proactive?
The pick was taken from another thread used for reference to where the leak is from. The thread I took it from was having an identical problem, just didn't have any response/answer to his thread.
thanks for the help!
