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.
