    I seem to be using a lot of oil and have it puddle up under the front carb cover. Apparantly merc was aware of this as they put a gasket on the bottome of the cover. What is the procedure for setting the oil injection, right now in nuetral the mark is in the middle of both lines. Thanks

    I have the same motor and had the same problem. My mechanic told me that you can safely back of the oil mark up to 1/8 of an inch. The rod that connects the this to the carbs must be snapped off and lengthened some.

    I think it needs to shortened to put out less oil. Anyway I took 2 turns out of my rod. Thanks for the reply.
