So after cleaning up yesterday, I noticed a little dribble coming from the upper gear lube drain. After further inspection, whomever drained and replaced the fluid before me, never put back the upper seal. So today I went and got the seals and purchased the gear lube. When I drained the old lube it was a bit milky so I ran some ATF thru the system twice and the ATF came out milky the first time and the second semi-milky.
So with that being said, I am thinking I might need new gear housing seals. If I just ran the motor on the wash down in the yard, is it possible for the seal to leak into the lower unit gear assembly and cause the milky color in the ATF? :-[
