Hello,
I'm new to this awesome forum and the world of boat owning (FINALLY). Got a 14ft Glasstream Pro 1440 with a J25ELCOC 25 HP Johnson that is SUPER CLEAN and runs great! When I take the engine cover off, I noticed some black oil laying in the compartment. Is this a sign of a future issue or is there anything I should check? A search only brought me up with lower compartment oil leaks and such so your responses would be very much appreciated! Thank you and tight lines!!!

could be some fuel oil mix dripping out of carb when you tilt the motor for transport
