HI ALL!<br />Motor Evinrude 70<br />I have a mix of gasoline and oil in crank case. Because of it the level of oil in crank case constantly raises. What to do?
Hi Alex....<br /><br />Hey, could ya' give us a year or better yet a model number on yer shaker? And I ain't real sure what ya' mean by the oil level in the crank case. Is this a four stroke engine???
Alex.<br /><br />I assume that you have the Suzuki-made EFI 4 stroke engine.<br /><br />There are several things that can cause gasoline to migrate to the crankcase, from unseated rings to running too cold to ruptured diaphrams in the low pressure fuel system to failure in the ECU.<br /><br />You need a manual, first, or take it to a dealer that handles Suzuki , Evinrude or Johnson 4 strokes.<br /><br />Good luck.
After what JB said, check the vapor seperator, the seperator is vented into the crankcase at top of valve cover. If the float sticks or needle leaks fuel it is pumped into the crankcase.
Does this engine run?<br /> <br />Compression should be over 150psi, which would be approximately 11-12 bar.<br /><br />Follow advice above, or seek a technician.
