Location: West Chester, OH | Check your "p" hole (No, the Merc's "p" hole!!) to be sure there is not an obstruction. As the weather cools, I have trouble w/small spiders nesting in the discharge line. They can set up shop quickly & must be forcibly evicted w/appropriately sized weapon.
Oil consumption: Injected motor? Oil consumption is regulated by the pump, so only some sort of abnormal wear or maladjustment could cause increased consumption.
Is your oil tank level dropping noticeably faster? (Possible leak in tank, line, fittings, pump, etc..) Or are you seeing more smoke? |
