Hi
You can get some fuel dye and uv light and glasses and run it on a smaller gas tank awhile and let it sit a few days then check it at night.
May have to leave it a week or more before you see something.
You can put some in your oil tank also and stir it up good.
You will see exactly where its...
My 90 hp 2 stoke did do that .
Had a epa non pressure vented plastic gas tank. It would swell up in the sunlight looked like it was about to explode over pressuring the whole fuel system causing tiny leaks everywhere.

You will be surprised...
On an older mercury mine creaking and popping was coming from the main cylinder pins , they go into fiber bushings . You may have a cover on each side with 2 bolts holding it on. You can try wd40 .

They are pretty cheap to buy.
Also what type of charger are you using now? And how long does it take...
Cam across this on utube, they are original vhs videos from omc.
I did not copy the link because it takes you to a persons utube channel.
Yes i know you will still go to the persons utube, but its up to you if you do!

Was hoping to see how the shift rod going to the pull rope cover was shifting the gear F/R .
