Help with 1997 offshore 150HP Oil Injected Outboard

Hi Everyone

Ive had the above listed outboard sitting idle for the past 3 years and recently fixed my trailer
to allow me to start using the boat again.

So I drained the unleaded fuel and re-filled the tank with 98 premium fuel.

Started it up and it ran great for 10 minutes then all of a sudden started blue smoke coming out the exhaust and hasnt stopped since.

Any ideas please ?

Thanks,

Lee
 
It normal for them to smoke...even oil injected.
If it heavy blue smoke it possible that the carbs have flooded over the years setting and the gas evaporated leaving oil puddled in reed blocks and crankcase and it burning it off..
