Hello group,

I just purchased a boat with a '91 200 hp Johnson. Been doing some
work on the boat and now have moved onto the engine. I test drove the
boat and it ran fine. Had lots of power and got on plane fast. Idle
fine, but smoked more than I liked. This week I started to do some
work on the engine. I changed the plugs (NGK), water pump, gear lube,
and some fuel line. I did put some regular hose clamps on the fuel
lines. I go to start the engine and it fires up, but starts to smoke
REAL bad. Clouds of white/blue smoke and oily water pouring out of the
hub. It will not idle, but will run above 1200 rpms. So much smoke
that the cloud of oil takes 5 minutes to clear the house, yikes!! I
did reading in the Seloc manual and figure that I have some air leaks
in the fuel line.

I took a look at the fuel lines today. They look wet, so I must be
sucking in air right? My first plan is to put new hoses and clamps in
and hope it solves the problem. Where do I find those oem fuel clamps?
Where else should I look for problems?

I did read about taking the VRO out, but I would like to keep it. I
want to run a 4 stroke 9.9 off the main tank and pre mix would kill
this idea.

TIA,
