Getting ready to put the boat away for the loooong ne winter
Since I'm going to change the drive lube (bravo II) was wondering how they pressure test it?? I would assume withair (how much psi) and a leak down time(how long?)

They can also vacuum test it. I have had occassional water in the lube....not with every change and not too much, only to the point that the lube was a bit milky.

So they vacuum tested it. Comes back OK.......they don't know which set of seals may be the issue so we have just let it go. I suspect it is the shift seal. Maybe the next lube will tell us more.
