I have noticed that my 82 Evinrude 35hp 2 stroke has been smoking a lot of blue smoke, Is this normal? My fuel mix is 50:1. Could overheated plugs have anything to do with it? I have also noticed a little bit of white smoke and a rough idle.

Top compression was #104 bottom was #124

Thanks in adavnce,
Dan

Here are the videos and pictures so guys you dont have to go through the pages looking for them

Blue smoke usually indicates oil burning, how confident are you on your fuel mixture? Two strokes will smoke a little bit, synthetic oils smoke less than your standard TCW-3 oils. Is this motor new to you or is it something that has just appeared?

I use one of those things you pour the oil into and it says how many gallons and the different ratios so its a good mixture. I have had it for a while now im gonna post a vid today to show how it smokes and sounds..

Top cylinder is about 104psi bottom around 124psi. I will check out the white smoke again today.

Both good numbers but a little far apart in my opinion. Have you given it a decarb recently ???

No I havent. Heres a vid of it idling this morning after around 3 or 4min of warming up. When I first started it up it smoked a lot of blue and stalled a few times..

I would check the cylinder head gasket.

Sounds like a lean miss, have you cleaned and rebuilt the carb??? Ezeke, I was going to go for head gasket but the compression seems high for blown head gasket, although the PSI spread is quite large. How do the plugs look?? A clean plug will indicate water intrusion.

It was rebuilt around 5 or 6months ago.. It actually has a brand new head gasket..

Did you re-torque the cylinder head after running? If not, you should check the head gasket.

[Edit] Check it anyway.;)
