Started the outboard yesterday. It is a late 80's oil injected 40 HP Marnier. I do not run it much in the summer. Due to the highter water temps I take most of the summer off fishing.

It took a while to start and it smoked alot and had a rattling sound.

It turned over easy.
Water pump had a good stream.
Oil is almost ful.
When it did start it smoked like a car that needed a ring job.
It had the rattle sound in the power head.

It did seem to run better after a couple of minutes but I shut it off since I was not sure if I have a problem.

Any thoughts?

THanks,

Bill
