    I would agree.  My first thought was that gasket as well.  It is leaking below that gasket, though. It is cooling fine, but it sprays water kind of halfway at the operator and into the boat when going straight ahead.  There is also some oily sludge that collects there and eventually runs down the side of the clamp.  I’m trying to fix this for someone else.  If it was my own motor, I probably wouldn’t bother much with it since these aren’t motors I run very often.  I sure would like to be able to fix this issue. It may not happen, though.  Thanks, Buc!
