Hi,

Went to lake today, outside temp was 47F, cloudy day. Noticed that the motor was steaming quite a bit. It ran great but wondering if it is that unusual!?!. Noticeable at idle and can't see anything while cruising but could be hard to detect. I checked the spark plugs and could see any obvious sign of humidity.
Any thoughts?


Thanks

When two strokes are idling, they don't need 50-1, and are scary smoky ,when there WOT they need 50-1,

It was 47 F and the exhaust water is around 110 F could be some steam also,
If it's one or both your fine, Nice shiny red cover, safe boating.

Normal.
​BUT!!! check the overheat buzzer just in case.
I live in Fl and can see steam from my motors.

With that ambient temp, I'll say the steamy or foggy exhaust is normal.
