If you have any doubts about where the fuel is coming from stop running the motor. If a float is stuck you will likely sieze that hole.

On my 1984 Evinrude XP 150 it runs like a horse but is leaking fuel/oil on the Float Bowl Gaskets on my Carbs.

I know I can order new gaskets from Evinrude for $20.

I called All-Marine, and to do take of old seals and put on new ones it is going to be $150-$175+Parts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

People online have told me it is easy to do, but at 15 I am not Exactly Experienced with outboard Mechanics.
Would Love to learn!!!!

A guy from BBC Sent me copies of all the Carb. Servicing pages from a manual. so there is instructions.

But as I mentioned I dont exactly have alot of Mechanical Experience, yet. (hoping too, though)
So I dont want to Screw it up.

Would anybody who has experience at this be willing to take a couple hours and help me?  Tips? Etc.?

                           Thanks,
                                           Nick
