I have oil coming from above the intake... I'm not an outboard motor guy and have no clue as to where the oil is coming from. When I bought the motor last summer there was some oil in the water when I test ran it. I put it in storage for the winter as soon as I got it home. It runs well. Started and idled on the first pull after storage! That said, I have it for sale at $75 as it is... If I can fix the oil leak issue I was hoping to get more for it...
Any knowledge/advice is appreciated.
