Re: Mariner 1996 2 Stroke Oil Leak
I don't know of any particular weak spots, but check to see that all of the hoses are in good condition, aren't cracked or broken, and that they're tight at their connections. If there is nothing apparent, you can wipe everything off, as dry as you can with a rag, and then start it up with the cowl off and let it idle. You should be able to find the source of the leak fairly easily after a minute or two, as it'll be the first place that gets wet with oil.
