My Bukh DV10ME has had an oil leak ever since I've had the boat. I've tried to nail it with no success to date.
I thought it was coming from the lift pump, so took that off and put a bit off sealant on an
otherwise good looking gasket. The leak was still there.
I then looked at the sump (which is where the oil looks like it's dripping from) tightened up
the studs (they were not loose). The leak was still there.
Craning my neck to get a look at the back of the engine it seems the leak could coming from
behind the part that the water pump and manual start is. The oil is black engine oil and only
drips about half a thimble full an hour, but it's annoying and I would like to fix it.
So what is behind that part of the engine that would leak and is it a matter of a new gasket
or what??????.
If your there HG. that pic of your engine with the flywheel off shows off your new pump and
the very place I think my leak is occurring, but it's behind that part.
