Transporting a 3.3Hp Mercury 2 Stroke Outboard Motor

Insuring that the spark plugs are at the top in my bad experience

Yes 6ph yamaha 2 stroke, had a big problem w oil up .
I made up a engine carrier out of old packing pine box to keep it safe when travelling

re (Yes 6ph yamaha 2 stroke, had a big problem w oil up .)

So does the oil in the prop gear box seep into the combustion chamber if the combustion chamber/spark plug is not higher than the lower leg prop gear box.

GBC : not sure where the oil came from .
but it sure did give us some problems for about 2 hours running the engine stalling drying out the plug again and again till we managed to get it running sweet again . This was pre box carrier and just had the motor sitting in the back of ute with plugs down since making the box and having the plugs up have not experienced the same issue but will take note of the angle of the motor next time for sure , it's not an old engine but not new either cheers .

Just a quick note for replying to comments if the comments and replies are not attached to the same one you may not get a notification of the reply .cheers again

Update ..just been talking w my boat mechanic of any years experience suggests more likely oil /fuel from fuel left in carby ..unlikely coming from leg
