Hi Everyone
I have read some threads on this overflow issue and I was wondering is there a way to test the Oil sensor. My oil tank fills past the upper fill mark after running the engine for a few hours. The oil reaches the top and flows into the air intake via a small air tube that is connected to the oil tank. The oil also spills out from a very small vent opening near the top of the oil tank. I replaced the control unit below the oil tank from the advice of a marine mechanic . I thought this corrected the proper oil input to the oil tank but still overfilling. The oil sensor is easy to replace but for $250 I would love to hear any advice before spending that kind of money on a hunch . This engine runs great and I hope someone might have past experience with this overflow.
Thanks, Ed Iversen
