Couple of questions. I just "woke" my engine after sleeping for pert near 8 months. I siphoned out all of the gas and put new gas in it.. I have a 1985 mariner 175hp with automatic oil injection. Anyway, the engine starts no problem now and idles real well with the muffs, but it just billows out white smoke non stop. The kind of smoke that lingers for a long period of time.
So my questions are what is that white smoke? Is it just burning out he gunk that was built up in the carbs and else where?
Or could it be the oil? which leads to my second question.. how long is marine oil good for if it just sits for say 8 months =)
thanks
