My problem is greasy spot on the surface of the sea. I do not know if it is motor oil or fuel. Oil consumtion is very small - 0,7 l per 100 working hour. I use synthetic Shell Rimula R4L 15w-40.
Smoke from exhoust is not white or black, it is light brown. Do you have any opinion what is wrong?
 
Worn valve stem seals?
Suspect that you may be indulging with synthetic oil though
yes, I use syntetic oil original volvo penta (vds-3 standard), that was recommended from volvo Penta retailer. Do you think that problem is in oil and is better switch to mimeral oil?
 
Thank you! What do you suggest? Change it or use diesel aditiv to clean it?
How is fuel in exhaust connected with blocked exhaoust elbow?
