"Hey all, looking to buy a min
"Hey all, looking to buy a mint condition '06 15 horse engine that has been barely used. My concern is that there is some type of clean oil coming out of the through prop exhaust when I saw it for the first time on a motor stand today. It must have been leaking very slowly for a while as there was a half dollar size puddle under the prop and the engine hadn't moved for a few days. The owner said it was on its side (the correct side) last week while on his boat. I checked the dipstick and it was over the max full line by a touch. I haven't started it yet but the owner said it will start right up and that he just had it running last week. Should I be concerned or should I look for something when I do get a chance to start it up this week or should I just avoid it all together? Thanks in advance."
