    Oil in spark plug well

    Pulled plugs on 2000 50hp evinrude 4stroke to fog motor and the 1st and 3rd plug had a tiny bit of oil in the well the second had none dry as a bone. So should I be concerned about this? Here’s pic of plugs

    Ok I gotcha, I did run into shallow water this summer and hit bottom but I was raising trim up and put in neutral at the time it hit, ended up taking a dime size chunk out of two of the blades, so that ride back it definitely felt more vibration, but after I put new prop on it ran good.

    You mean the boat itself or the prop hitting rocks, I understand the prop but if I slam into a bank with the pontoons which I don’t plan to do it could cause dynamic halt? What does this do to motor?

    Vacuum line?

    Ok so I found a nipple on bottom of crank case beside oil filter right above dip stick you can see it in pic I believe that bottom hose goes to, and I believe the hose on top of motor goes into the fly wheel cover in that open port in pic.

    Vacuum line?

    Thanks that is good info, I used the boat every weekend this summer and it ran good only issue is when shifting into neutral from either gear it dies so maybe this recirculating line has something to do with that?
