I just bought a boat and I noticed a little oil on the floor. Looks like lower unit oil from around the prop. It is an older Mercury 9.8 hp Model 110. Anybody have any experience with this, and what to do. Im sure there is a seal around the prop, but I have no idea how to get to it or change it. I really dont want to spend 150 or so to fix it at a mechanic, when its probably only worth 300-400. Any help is appreciated!
Also what would the oil/gas ratio to mix in a little engine like this. I used to have a 60 hp merc and it was 50:1 I believe.
