1995 Mercury 115hp 2 stroke carb

[xdbmb45]

I have a 1995 Mercury 115hp 2 stroke carbs, there is water coming out of hole in top of the lower unit. I've never noticed this before, is this a problem or is it normal?

Check your gear oil. Color?

Set a pan under the lower unit and remove the bottom drain plug on the lower unit. If it has been setting for a while and there is water in the lower unit water will run out or it the oil is gray color it has water in it. Take it to a marine mechanic to have the seals replaced and the gears check for damage.
The lower unit oil should be checked a couple times a year and replaced once a year.

Is it normal sometimes for a 2 stroke to leak oil from the exhaust area and on top drain port of the lower unit if you idle for too long of a period? It’s just characteristic of a 2 stroke !!!!! Not burning all the fuel and oil of a V4?

Sometimes when they Idle for a while they may not burn the all of the oil. Do you still use the oil injection system or premix you oil.

If it idles good you should be ok. The oil injection system should the most efference for burning oil.
