    Sometimes when a mixture of fuel and water sits, it does stratify but the color doesn’t come completely out of the water. I feel like that’s what you’ve got there on the bottom. Colored water. And from the crank case. Uggh. I’d personally be going right after the lower crank seal, as a starting point, with no time to waste. I’d hate to see you loose a crank, or worse, on those beauties…..Even if that’s not the cause of the water intrusion, it would be money and time well spent. The seal is probably original equipment; and just because they seem to have low hours, it doesn’t mean the rubber is in good shape. JMHO.

    Long live American manufacturing!
