    There was a decent amount of fishing line wrapped around the shaft under the prop. I just have a feeling there is another leak though. I topped up the L/U fluid using my pump bottle. I then put the screws back in and about a quarter of a teaspoon dripped out of the foot. Through the exhaust, I think. Then I put it in a test tank and ran it propless. The motor ran nice and pumped good. I put the motor back on a stand and put a cup under the fin. After two days a water and oil mixture again about a quarter of a teaspoon dripped in the cup. I’m thinking I should drain the L/U and take a look at the fluid. If it’s milky, I know I have a leak.
