    Oil in the splashwell

    Johnson 150 J150ELEB ser.number to come. Took the boat out the other day, been quite a while since I ran the big engine. Tilted motor up just before leaving the water, got home, plugged in the charger, noticed some oil had dripped into the splash well. Looked into it further today, took the cover and air box off, saw oil in the openings to the carbs. Have I or am I developing an issue or having a brain fart and worrying over nothing?

    Sorry meant to mention, there was approx. a teaspoon in the well and residue in the carb openings.

    Loosen the cap on your Oil tank. Just remember to tighten it when you go to the lake again.
