Re: Water/Oil spraying out Exhaust Evinrude
Hello Jimbo;<br />I think the engine you have is a thirsty one.<br />If it is a 90* V-4 Looper, I guess I am not all that surprised with a little oil & fuel comming from the exhaust into the water. I will assume this is the type engine you have in my comments.<br />4 carbs, very fickle, not all that easy to dial in. <br />First, clean the grounds to each of your coils, make sure they are making a solid contact. Test the engine before doing anything else. A bad ground could cause intermitant fire to one or more cylinders creating your problem.<br />If the problem still exists;<br />Look for a differance in one of the plugs, you may need to make a slight adjustment to the carb that feeds that cylinder only. Each carb should have it's own low speed needle. Each carb low speed needle adjustment may not end up being exactly the same. (should be close but not nessisarally exact) make minor adjustsments, retest engine, use a bit of paitence and don't do anything radical.<br />Your compression sounds good, I believe your problem is minor.<br />Good Luck, Rob
