  • HELP! - unknown fuel leak

    Hello,

    I am the owner of a motorboat "Skibsplast Sportsmann 14" (made in Norway) with a Johnson 40HP outboard (BJ40 BAER, 1994).

    I have detected a fuel leak but I don't understand what's happen!?
    When I sail, the boat and motor are OK, everything is working.

    When my motorboat is moored (and quiet), that's OK.
    But when the boat is moved (for example to go on board), a fuel spot (fuel smells) appears on the water, around the motor!

    I have tried to see if something was not OK around the motor but I can't see anything (any fuel leak!)!?
    I have disconnected the fuel but no change!
    It seems that the fuel comes from under water....

    Thanks for any help
    Sylvain

    May have a carb flooding or bad diaphram in fuel pump.
