Hi all,
On my 2000 oceanpro 130hp-
So I recently changed gear oil so was concerned to see an oil patch (thick dark oil trickle not residue) out the propellar exhaust after running on muffs.
I'm almost certain it's not gear oil, it's black and not smelly. The motor is running sweet from cold, not smoking excessively etc, so it seems odd that excessive 2 stroke oil might be coming through, surely it would run rough?
Any thoughts? Each time I run for a few mins there is a good 50ml at least dripping out!
If it's a gas restriction or air leak, again wouldn't it run rough? No alarms, automatic choke drops rpm back when warm etc.
