1994 200hp Ocean Runner - Excessive smoking, alarm sounds indicating either overheat, or fuel restriction. Poking around and checked in-line filter... found fuel/oil mixture in fuel supply line. Cleared oil out after pumping about a pint. Should the oil be allowed to back-flow into the fuel line??

Your "VRO" likely has a leaking oil outlet check valve inside it. The only fix is to replace the pump, the new style pumps now are completely repairable compared to the pre-1998 pumps.
