Thanks for all the help! We're shooting for going out tomorrow so I'll see what happens. Right now it's stored with the motor neutral like the picture. When you say store it slightly positive are you saying tilt the shaft side of the motor a little bit up? Could it be that we have a seal that's shot that's allowing oil to leak when we're trailering it? Sorry for all the questions. I'm new to the quirks of outboards.
Thanks.
