Hello everyone. I’m new here and new to boating. I brought our first boat December 2022, 7 months ago. A 2002 SeaRay 185 bowrider with the 4.3 mercruiser. I noticed after every trip we do with the boat, there’s an oil dripping from a mysterious brass plug I can’t identify.
hope you guys can help. Looks like it’s been tape wrapped by the previous owner.
What’s it for and can I remove it to put fresh Teflon tape to stop the drip? Or will all the oil come gushing out? Here’s where it is…..(it’s on the driver side of the motor straight up above the starter)
