Motor fires right up as usual but when I get on the gas to plane,the motor just bogs down real bad and wont get up unless my partner gets on the deck.Once on plane and partner in seat,boat runs fine at all rpms.Changed the plugs,old ones were black as night and I noticed a bit of gas/oil in the threads of the plug seats.Figured new plugs would take care of it but didnt help one bit.

Also noticed gas/oil on outside of block in the front.Could it be a fuel filter?Carb problem?Any other ideas?What should I do first?Will SeaFoam help at all?

Motor is a 1992 Evinrude 200 LE (E200STLEN)
