How much fluid comes out? Are you filling it too much ? When hot, the fluid will expand and fill up the bottle.

Drive shower? Is this heat related?? A hard pass to make it happen or just short cruise?? How full do you fill your drive?? or I should ask what proceedure do you use to fill it? Fill up to the vent on top and put the plug in, then fill til you see it in the reservoir??

Tell us exactly what is happening.. maybe we can figure it out..

If its comming out like that then you have a bearing issue, thats the only way it will get hot enough to do that I have seen it 100s of times

if I had to take a guess site un seen pinion bearing, 7 out of 10 times thats what it is


get someone that knows xrs to look at it ....DO NOT RUN THE BOAT!!!!!!

It still should not blow ALL the fluid out of the bottle.

ROYAL PURPLE is a 0 friction lube I dont recomend it for bravos as they use friction to shift, also if you are still under warr it will void the warr
