I have an 86 9.9 fourstroke kicker motor that is getting raw fuel in oil crank case. I had O-rings in fuel pump replaced, carb rebuilt, and bimetal valve replaced. If I pull plug out of bottom cylinder it looks like it's receiving a richer fuel mixture. The motor starts fine and doesn't smoke. Would oil seperator have anything to do with this? I'd like to get this problem taken care of before I put the boat in the water. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Happy New Year!!!

Most of the time it's the carb. Did you replaced float valve in carb? Also check gas tank if not venting properly it can over pressurize and flood carb., look at vent on gas cap.

Boats.net thanks for the reply. I'm pretty sure that float was included in Yamaha rebuild kit I purchased. It was rebuilt by professional carb shop. The motor is fed with it's own fuel line off main tank (120 gallon) so it should have enough pressure relief. I do notice that after having kicker running for several hours that motor may sputter and I have to pump up primer bulb and it runs fine. 6'fuel line and primer bulb have been replaced along with fuel/motor connector.I have also made adjustments to lean/rich mixture screw.Any other suggestions?
