Oil leaking from carbs
#1
Question for you guys, I've always thought I had an oil leak (since I bought the boat) and even after replacing every oil component it still leaked oil (Mariner 125 hp outboard 2 stroke with oil injection). It wasn't until I took the cover off the carbs that I saw oil come out of the carbs when I'd tilt the motor up. It's always bugged me because I thought I'd end up stranded somewhere but couldn't ever find the source of the leak, and it wasn't that much leaking out so I stopped worrying about it. It sure would be nice to keep that little cubby clean where the motor tucks into when the motor is fully trimmed up. Any ideas on how to solve this problem? I'm thinking it's a fairly normal thing? At this point it looks like it only leaks out of the bottom carb, but for all I know it comes out all the carbs. Any thoughts?
