I tilted the motor way up today to make pulling the lower easier on the back. When I looked at the shaft of the lower, the top 8" was coated with motor oil dripping downward. I went back and checked the outboard, it had dripped about 6oz of oil over the tilt tube and into the motor well. The oil smells a little gassy but is still thick. Doesn't look like oil level is down. Does an EFI "make gas"?
So where did this oil come from? Is it normal to leak out if you tilt the OB way up?
