"Scotty
Its 2 stroke ,runs well,but only used for trolling at low revs for hours at a time."

"That's just burnt/unburnt oil and gas slowly "sliming" it's way down the exhaust housing.

Totally normal - most of it goes out the exhaust into the water when you are running, and the rest drips out on the drive home, but alot of trolling tends to cause it to load up with lots of "goop" - 2 strokes are grossly inefficient and lot's of cooties collect in the housing.

So no worries..."
