HI Group,

The sickie is a 1978 Chrysler, 2 cycle, 70 HP outboard. The motors
been gone through and re-gasketed prior to my entry into its world. I
finished the motor by going through all the externals to ensure it's up
to snuff per the motor manual.

Build a motor stand to test and run the motor out of the water but with
water hose cooling supplied of course. The motor fired off and ran for
around a minute but then started pushing gasoline out the card throats.

I'd revisit the reed valves to make sure they are sealing properly.
