I have a 1986 115 merc. I lost power yesterday so I went to the dock.When engine in running gas is coming out of the vent hole on the top carb. I tried running it out of gas thinking the float was stuck. This did not help, when I go to prime the carbs the gas just comes out of the top vent hole.Any ideas on what causes this will be appreaciated. Thanks, Dan |

Float is stuck or has some debris in there.. you'll probably need to remove and clean it. |
