Gota 1995 Nissan 18hp on a pontoon. Model NS18C2. When the motor is cold you can turn the key, without choking it, and she will fire right up. But she will puke out a puddle of gas out of the exhaust into lake. the motor runs, but I can't figure out why she does this. It has a manual and electric choke.

Normal for a two-stroke anything. If the engine is running rich there may me more than normal. This was the reason the EPA got involved in emission regulation on outboards.
