I had the powerhead rebuilt two months ago ( 89 175 johnson ) and I'm still breaking it in. I have only ran one tank through with double oil and just started the second. I had every cylinder bored 20 over and all new bearings and seals replaced. The problem I'm having is that yesterday it was hard to start and I noticed that the crankcase where the two halves join had a small leak. The fuel pump surges like it is sucking air about every 2 to 3 seconds, would the crankcase seal cause this? Other than this it runs fine.
