Gas in Exhaust


Hi All,
Yesterday noticed an abnormal amount of gas in my starboard engine exhaust. At first, I thought I might have flooded the engine, so waited to see if it would eventually clear up. It didn't. My gut reaction is that the CARBUREATOR(??) needs to be replaced.

Important to note: Last time I took the boat out, right after we got back to the dock. I had a brain fart, and when I tried to bump the engine into gear, I mistakenly bumped the throttle into gear, which caused the engine to rev at High RPM for a split second (Luckily I was in neutral) :banghead: I am thinking that might have been the cause, my issue with the fuel in the exhaust.

Anyone have experienced gas in the exhaust? What was the out come? Is the fuel injector the most common cause?

Thanks in advanced!
