    2004 Yamaha F115 4 stroke question. Please and Thanks!

    This just happened. When we shut off the engine a little bit of gas will drip out of the back the motor through what I believe is the exhaust. Has anyone had this issue. Some people have told me it is the carbs but this motor does NOT have carbs. Fuel Injected. Thank you!
