In June 2022 had the cone clutch replaced by a reputable shop. No issues at all last year so pretty sure that was unrelated but want to throw it out there.
So now every few weeks the lube monitor is empty and I have oil in my bilge so has to be leaking inside the boat? Looked today and can't see any leaks but the first time we had it out this year it overflowed out of the monitor cap. Just saw a video where a guy left his washer/gasket off the cap. I have noticed the top of my cap seems to always be wet.
Any other ideas on where to look? I followed the hose back to the back of the engine and it seems all dry.
