hmm, well if there is oil in the water bypass lines on a 2 stroke, and the plugs are fuel oil soaked, and the damn thing won’t accelerate past 2500 rpm’s…. Maybe it’s possessed and I should just put it out if it’s misery lol. Seriously though, I did turn the air/fuel mixture screws out about 1/8 turn each just to see what would happen. If I’m doubt turn the needles out type deal. Guess she is running too rich at idle now… but the oil in the water lines? And there was a puddle of oil in my driveway the next day after I ran it last time and that never happened before. There was a lot of oil everywhere… and it drained out onto my driveway. There isn’t even an oil container in the outboard anymore so all came from the gas/oil mix
