The crank-breather tube may exit very close to the coolant tube. So it may be an illusion that the oil is coming out with the peeing coolant water.
Tomorrow I will look at the motor in detail, and know more about this. Apparently the oil on the dip-stick looked high but normal ie no water in the oil. Perhaps gas in the oil? I'll check tomorrow. Any other ideas on what would cause oil to squirt out of the cowling near the cooling water exit? Or with the cooling water? -Neal. lets go sailing wrote: > huuuuuooooowwwwww, Hold your horses > where did you figure all these out. > When oil comes out of the raw water with the exhaust it is the > lower crankshaft seal!!!! or Not likely a head gasket which the engine will > burn a blue smoke when cold and foul the spark plugs, > > Sorry I didn't use any semicolons..lolololol > > Yanni Marinated > S/V Princess Thalia > Columbia 8.7 #73 > Hamilton-Fifty Point @ H3 > N 43.13.406 > W 73.37.431 > > ----- Original Message ----- > *From:* [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > *To:* [email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]> > *Sent:* Wednesday, August 27, 2008 6:21 PM > *Subject:* Re: [Liveaboard] Honda outboard problem. > > First, Check the oil level.
