This is a Whitlock motor
In Response To: Larry, I swapped mine out for one that wasn't sealed. ()
And Whitlock (Lewmar) doesn't sell just parts. It's sealed. Like owning a car with its hood welded shut.
I now have a Jefa motor on order, from PYI. The PYI guy I spoke with (Phil) really seems to know his steering systems. I'm impressed with his knowledge. Hopefully this will solve my issue.
