[QUOTE="Boat2fast, post: 349606, member: 13358"] Old-school boaters were taught by their Fathers to run the engine dry at the end of every day out. OMC VRO oil injected engines don't do well with that. While the engine is running out of fuel the oil pump is busy filling up the fuel system with oil. I think you're experiencing the results. Its possible to drain the bowls and flush through with some premix using the squeeze-bulb. One advantage here is buying a good running engine cheap, with a well-preserved fuel system. [/QUOTE]
