Ok guys the motor is a 1981 Merc 165 hp inline 6 cyl with San Juan FWC. and a 2 barrel rochester carb.
The crankcase is loading up with gas and I don't understand where it could be coming from? I JUST installed a new (mechanical) fuel pump AND had the carb professionally rebuilt this summer! How else can gas get in there?
In September when I installed the new fuel pump I gave it a fresh oil change and took the boat out for maybe an hour long ride spending about 20 mins of that time on the plane. Now the dipstick shows almost 2 liters above the mark! It almost seems as if the level is rising as it sits in the driveway but I'm not sure? Any ideas? Thanks.
