Recently bought 1985 Yamaha 200. Noticed in my cleanup that the engine was covered in a light, but very thick coat of oil similar to fogging oil. I believed this to be the 2 stroke oil that had misted out and sat on the engine for several years. I cleaned this off the entire engine, which had been preserved very nicely by the oil coat. After running about 8 hours over a weekend and trailering home, I noticed a film of oil on the forward half of the engine and front of the lower cowl (motor was fully tilted for most of the weekend. I have examined the 6 tubes coming from the oil pump to the carbs and they are wet with oil here and there. I suspect a crack some where, but it is small, as I seem to get a widespread coating, not drops or pools of oil. Any suggestions on how to locate, short of replacing all the hoses? Any common failure points?
