Has a oil cooler been giving problems for anyone? The reason I ask, is I went to the stream a couple of weeks ago and the port engine (7.4 gas) used 2.5 qts of oil. Stb engine was fine. At the dock I see a shine on the water not like fuel, but maybe oil. Boat is a 95 and I believe had sat for a period of time without being used. Any suggestions?

oil cooler
We had to replace an oil cooler about 3 mounths ago.
We noticed our oil was getting milky and we had a slick behind the boat.
Check your oil to see if it is milky if so the water is getting in, inside the oil cooler.
You can call greens marine in wilmington and they will get one for you.It's a Classic

coolers
Oil coolers are an easy item to replace if you are skinny. One side is easier than the other. I had similar problem, slightly different though. Water shooting out of jacket not oil. Replaced cooler. Gave old cooler to shop welder and he rebuilt it like new. Keep it as a spare for the future. They are not cheap. Aftermarket slighly less expensive.The adage of replacing both is great for people with deep pockets. Good luck.
