Default Re: Water intrusion into Johnson VRO 140's on 23 CC

squidrig,
I have a 98 Merc 250 EFI motor on my 23' Scepter. Seems to work real well operationally, but has a little bit of a drinking problem. If water was coming in the vent and the water separator is working, you sould have found water in the separator and the carbs. If the water separator is working, it must be coming in from some place between the filter and the carb. I hate to ask the obvious, but with 4 tanks, and 2 motors, there isn't any way that gas is getting to the motor without going thru the filter? Did the carbs have any junk in them? Sounds like a mystery to me.
