I have a F4 four-stroke from 2009; the problem with this outboard is that when you transport it not completely liying flat, oil will leak from the sump into the cylinders so starting the engine is impossible; the oil prevents the cylinders to move. In the past 2 years this has happened twice already. Annd each time this had to be repaired by the dealer.
Can anyone tell me how i can reapoir this myself? In my opinion i have to unscrew the sparkplugs, let the oil come out of the cylinders and try to clean it as much as possible, add new oil and that's it? Or am I wrong? Does someone has the same problems?
With the 2010 models they have fixed this; they even advertise that with these new outboards it can never happen again. By the way the same goes for the four stroke F5 and F6.
