I'd think that a Full,+ Complete Tune-Up,+ Service is in order,.........<br />It Sounds like a Carb. Rebuild would also do wonders on it,.......<br />4 Years is a Long Time Sitting.............<br />

On this 1,... You're kind of on your own,.....<br />There's Many Many place that either Water,.. Or Oil can be Leaking from,...........<br />Nothing short of just Crawling down into the bilges will answer That Question,..........<br />Ya gotta get Your head down in there,+ Have a Look Around................. ;) <br /><br />Good Luck.......
