    I now have my A25 running.  I notice that it is throwing out a lot of john Deere corn head grease from the lower unit, appears to be coming out around the prop shaft.  There is no appreciable play/wear in the shaft when I grasp the shaft and move it up and down, but I am sure there is wear on the shaft and the bushing in the housing cover.  Is this normal for gear lube to come out in this location?  Have I overfilled the gear case?  I guess if lube is coming out, water is not going in?  Any advice appreciated.  thanks Jonathan
