Okay, I isolated the problem. Gas squirts out of the bottom of the float bowl located underneath the carburetor of my 1984 25hp Mercury. Any idea why this is happening before I attempt to take it apart? Thanks.
I have a 1984 25hp. Merc. This morning I noticed that gasoline is mixed with water coming out of the pee-hole. Where should I begin looking for the problem? What could possible be causing this? Thanks.
Here are the symptoms to my 1984 Evinrude 50hp.
