Post water in transom GTR
Cranked my motor today at the launch and water started coming out of my clutch cover... anyone else had this problem? I know it rained a lot in SETX do you think thats what did it because i don't have a motor cover? because i let my lil bro take it out last and he said he didn't spray the motor a lot. I am just wondering if any one else ran into this problem?

Rain water drained into the belt housing. Its not gonna hurt a thing. Pull the drain plug at the base of the belt housing and then re install.
