Ok, here's the deal.... My boat has been to the dealer twice for the same problem. Oil is leaking into the bilge while underway. I can't find the source of the leak, and the dealer can't find the source either! The dealer pulled the engine and replaced the timing chain cover and gasket, and after one time on the water for about 1 hour, the leak is back! I'm beginning to wonder if my fuel tank may have a slow leak, but I am not smelling gas. It does not appear to be gear oil. It looks like motor oil in the water in the bilge. I thought it might be coming from the rear seal, but dealer said they could not see the leak there. Anyone have a similar problem? I guess it's back to the dealer! Mercruiser was nice to cover the issue under warranty!:huh:
