Motors burning rich

[26blackwatch]

My motors seem to be smoking a bit more than usaull.It started at the end of last year.Seem to be burning more oil than usaul also.They run great but I am wondering if the injectors are feeding to much oil.Motors are 200 evinrude ocean pro's 1996.Any ideas or anyone ever takle this job before.Also what is the rep of these motors.Thanks

I know with yamahas if the sender in the small tank on the motor sticks it will keep pulling oil into that tank from the remote tank and it will pressure up and force feed into the motors, causing more oil burn,hence more smoke and consumption.

Have you been running carbon cleaner with your fuel??
My Merc would really smoke and carry on until I ran either QuickClean or Yamaha's Ring Free in the fuel and it cleared it right up.

I prefer the Ring Free and will add extra to the fuel as a "shock" and run a tank through. Afterwards, just add the prescribed amount everytime you fuel up.
It works great.

The additives can be expensive, but the alternative costs alot more.
