After a day out on the lake Saturday, I noticed some transmission oil in the bilge. Not a lot, but enough to turn the little water in there red and coat the bilge with it.
Where should I start looking for a leak? Thanks, Jeff |

I'd probably start at the transmission? The leak should be inversely proportional to the gravitational pull in your area. 
Wipe it down good and put some cardboard under it. The leak is usually within a few degrees of due north of the red puddle. ------------- http://correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=2331&sort=&pagenum=12&yrstart=1986&yrend=1990" rel="nofollow - 1988 BFN-sold "It's a Livin' Thing...What a Terrible Thing to Lose" ELO |
