I have a 1986 Johnson 150 that was recently rebuilt (just started breaking it in) that has oil running down the lower unit after running on earmuffs for a few minutes.
I'm running 25:1 premix for break in, so is this the excess oil that is not getting burnt ?
I've checked the lower unit oil, which is fine.
Plugs are not fowled.
The motor runs great (so far idle to fast idle), very smooth idle, no missing.
The oil, looks like premix, drips out from the bottom of the cowling piece by the two holes in the lower unit below the powerhead and down by the prop.
Any help would be appreciated.
