Re: to much smoke

Model number?

Smoke and unburned fuel/oil are pretty normal at trolling speed. A bit rich at idle is better than a bit lean.

With the model number we have an idea what engine you have and what is normal.

Re: to much smoke

The year and model makes a major difference in what is normal. If everything sounds good other than the smoke, try running 100% synthetic TC-W3 outboard oil. It will cut your smoke way down to next to nothing.
