TLDI 40hp air rail problems

What kinda of performance issues could I expect if my outboard has fuel leaking over into the air side of the rail? Motor runs ok doesn’t stall but doesn’t have take off power. Slow to plane and just doesn’t wind out like it used too. Fuel pressure and air pressure check ok but fuel will seep out when depressing the air valve.

You could blow a compressor. I would check the regulator for the air side.

Ok I think I’m gonna schedule service with a certified mechanic. Just kinda trying to narrow it down. Could that cause the power issues even with the proper air pressure?

Fuel should never get into the air rail, so any performance issues are possible.
