"Is it OK if some gasoline or spent-fuel coming from exhaust in an older 2 stroke 3 PH Johnson motor from 70’s? The motor works fine, the compression is good, and it starts very good. But when I run the motor for 2-3 minutes, I see that water in the bucket is covered with thin layer of fuel. When I take the motor out of the bucket, I see some kind of spent-fuel (black color fluid) coming from the exhaust. What does it mean? Are there any standards for that? Should I do anything about it? Please help. Thanks."
 
Normal discharge from the exhu

Normal discharge from the exhuast. Just make sure the fuel is not leaking after it sits for a few minutes after removing it from the tank.(fresh unburnt fuel) If there is a fuel shut off valve under the tank make sure to turn it off when the engine is not going to be used for a few days. Good luck.
