I recently purchased a boat with a 03 Evinrude 200 DI with 160 hrs on it. First I had to change the spark plugs, fine motor maintance no big deal, now the motor is leaking oil, not a lot but a few drips. I called a couple dealers and they said it is very common to have a Evinrude DI leak a little oil. They said not to worry they all leak a little oil it’s very common, they told me to throw a little sponge in the bottom and you will never see it again. Does anyone have any insite on this. Besides telling me I should have stayed with my Mercury’s. I have had 2 different Mercury motors with no problems what so ever. This motor is starting to p… me off . I’m hoping someone has some insite & experience with these motors.
Thanks,
