Post Case gasket leak remedy
I'm fixing a leaking case gasket on my pd 36 for the second time. Any good tips? A guy told me he tapped out his holes n his case to 3/8 to get a tighter fit. Anyone tried this?

Has anyone tried lock washers on the bolts to keep them from backing out?

Talk to Boat Dr. His remedy seems to work well.

Deadbird,

What other forum? i had the case gasket changed and after about 20 hours I appear to have a shaft seal leak and a minor case gasket leak on my 2007 36 PD.

Thanks,

hotdog
