[QUOTE="Rumblejohn, post: 459936, member: 17653"] I have a 2013 30hp four stroke, and I have found it to be a little touchy about over filling at oil changes. Be sure that you get all of the old oil out. The manual says to have the engine tilted and turned to starboard to drain, but if you have it too high, it does't completely drain. Not sure if there is a difference in capacities between the years, but mine says 1.8qts, don't over fill it. If it does't "crackle" when you put heat to a drop or two oil, there is no water. Think about what happens when you spill water into a hot frying pan. Good luck and let us know what you find, John [/QUOTE]
