Re: 88 force 125

How much?These motors don't burn all the gas/oil.After a while the nooks and crannies fill up and then it comes out and makes a mess.If you were to drop the lower it will probably covered in oil.It usually leaks it's way out but the drains were probably clogged.
If this starts doing this a lot your fuel recirc system probably need cleaning.

While you have the lower dropped change the impeller.J

Re: 88 force 125

it all came out in a puddle about 1 foot diameter on the boat ramp. how would i go about cleaning the recirc system. is this bad for the motor to be building up all this oil inside. should i drop the lower unit just to clean.
