oil leaking from plugs

[barbender55]

Hi gents I did a search but did not find anything that matched. I have a 95 175 Evinrude Ocean Pro. Was out on the week end and motor sputtered a bit and then took off. When I got back to the dock noticed dark oil/fuel mixture leaking from spark plugs. Plugs were also loose. Is this something serious? I hope this is just a case where the plugs need to be cleaned and reinserted (tighter). The boat has run great all season long. I did not start the engine again for fear it could be more serious. Oil was black and gummy. Thanks.

Nothing to be concerned about. Clean the plugs and torque em in proper.
