    Oil Leak at the base of the power head

    Now I have propeller question. I have a 1974 Mercury 115 horse two stroke outboard that the prop worked fine at low throttle(trolling) but when I push to wide open throttle, the motor races like my prop is spun.

    I have looked over the u tube tutorials and have not found anything specific. Just want to get some reference information before I go disassembling the stuff to get to the hose. Yep I am a needy person.

    Well I finally got the boat out to a body of water which is now a rarity with water reserves depleting in Idaho. I have a forward and reverse but no throttle. I will take the control box apart to see if there is a disconnect. When I move the the lever the throttle cable does not move at all.
