Why is there oil on my Yanmar SD60 sail drive housing?
- RRyan SmithJul 29, 2025
If you notice oil on the sail drive housing of your Yanmar Outboard Motor, it could be due to several reasons. Check for loose screws, screw connections, or a loose dipstick and tighten or replace them as necessary. Also, verify that the oil level isn't too high during operation; if it is, pump out oil until it reaches the maximum mark on the dipstick.
