Re: Drive oil reservoir puking!
I am with RHC on this one. You may have a problem, the heat will cause expansion and overflow. Drain and inspect oil and magnets. If you feel lucky swap bottles and see if it still pukes. I had an XZ puke twice and then lock up due to a pinion bearing. There was no metal flakes or chunks, just dirty oil as the pinion ground away to fine powder.

Swap the caps and see it the problem switches sides. If not check the seals on the fill plugs.

Re: Drive oil reservoir puking!
I had the same problem with a bravo III and went through all of the above suggestions. Then someone informed me that the cap has a special gasket and relief valve. I found the gasket as it had fallen between the cover and the intake manifold, I put it back into the cap and the problem went away.

Re: Drive oil reservoir puking!
I'm gonna switch lids this wekend and see. If its a drive I hope it can last until after labor day! I will try draining oil and see if there is some water in there.

Re: Drive oil reservoir puking!
I am experiencing the same problem. Switched caps and problem followed the cap. I need to search for that gasket or buy a new cap.

Re: Drive oil reservoir puking!
This weekend I switched caps and noticed a missing gasket on the side that was puking. I tightened them both down real tight and no puke after running all weekend. :D
