oil leaking from the bottom of my 225 mariner outboard

[jeffryb]

when lifting my engine out of the water 2-cycle oil was pouring out of one of the holes in the bottom of the engine
engine was not starting and being turned over and over to try to get running but wont stay running
possible carbs out of adjustment?
mabey fuel adjustment?

If you're cranking the engine over and it's not starting, eventually it's going to be pushing unburned fuel/oil into the exhaust so this may or may not be abnormal given the circumstances.

Would need way more information before possibly being able to offer any useful advice.
