This was an old trick to balance a drive shaft . Drill a hole in the shaft , pore in a quart of automatic transmission fluid reseal the hole. when the shaft turns it is perfectly balanced. That fluid is leaking some where in the shaft. This comes from a guy looking for 41 Merc parts Please let me know if this is the problem I havnt heard of anyone using this method for some time but I know it works Gord
