My 96 120 Hp Is Leaking Raw 2 Stroke Oil Only When Running. Is Their A Particular Weak Spot In The Pump And/or Lines That Feed From The Oil Tank?

I don't know of any particular weak spots, but check to see that all of the hoses are in good condition, aren't cracked or broken, and that they're tight at their connections. If there is nothing apparent, you can wipe everything off, as dry as you can with a rag, and then start it up with the cowl off and let it idle. You should be able to find the source of the leak fairly easily after a minute or two, as it'll be the first place that gets wet with oil.

Check the oil cap on the resevoir. They can crack and oil creeps out under pressure. Couldn't see it. Mine finally broke in pieces and when I replaced it the leak stopped. Took a while though to clean all of the spilled oil.
