I found oil spills inside the transom area after the engine was in the tilt position. Also that same engine burns much more oil than the other identical motor. I found that by looking at the remote oil tank. MAy be there is a leak.
I did see a trace of oil in the water yesterday after a cold start. Any suggestions any one would be appreciated ?
 
Two things I can think of. One would be a leak and the 2nd would be that it is over-oiling due to the oil pump linkage being out of adjustment. Have you checked that the linkage is still properly connected?
 
OK, check the oil pump, no visible leak that I can see. checked linkage and it looked ok. I would like to adjust it linkage and I am not sure how. I know it's running much richer thatn the other (port) engine.
