Lower Gear Case

Pulled the plugs out of the lower gear case hoping to see nice black oil. No luck. A brown watery muck slowly tripped out. So time to split the case and take a look. The screws came out easily. Too easily !! They were only finger tight. Got the cover off and the gears were covered in brown muck. Sprayed everything with a lot of cleaner and eventually there were nice clean gears sitting there. Everything came a part nice and easy. Bearings look. Seals need to be replaced. Seal kit is on the way. After cleaning and new seals I think it will be good for reassembly.
