"I'm new to this site, need some advice and this looks like THE place. I've rebuilt the carb on my '94 Mariner 25 remote after I noticed fuel leaking from carb when tilted. I replaced all gaskets and diaphrams, cleaned carb and replaced on motor. Now, outboard running way too rich. Motor starts fine but smokes and blows oil. On the water motor runs as though it's way rich (sputters like not running on both cylinders and burning 2-3 times the fuel it used to) and will not get up to higher rpm's even at wot. I've taken the carb off two more times to check float/bowl and for any dirt/crud. Could the rebuilt fuel pump be pumping too much fuel? Could it be the wrong rebuild kit? I am at a loss. Any Ideas or help would be much appreciated."
