2003 Fountain Executioner Exhaust
I have two 496HO Mercruiser engines and i am having trouble with the exhaust coating the back of the swim platform and the exhaust pipes. I think it is running rich has anybody else had this problem? What did you do to correct it?
I am running 87 octane gasoline.

Run 87. I get some soot back there, not enough to bother me. Still gets clothes dirty if you don't watch out. Just kinda gets grey. Same on new 525's as the 502 carbs I had.
