    VinTin – that sucks man! Ive read of one or 2 folks who have had this happen, however it seems many people have very good results. I think one issue is the old fuel absorbing into the cork and leaving behind a varnish residue which might cause this. I read on a vintage outboard site that he used por-15 many times with great success but pointed out there could be issues with old varnish on the cork.

    Anyway – thanks for the update and sorry to hear! I might try some on fresh cork and soak it in 87 gas for a few days – Did u let it dry for 3-4 days minimum before using?
