Outboard motor? Do I have a problem or is this common?

Question:
I bought a boat from another state for a great deal... When I arrived at the site to pick it up I ran it for under 2 seconds and cut it off to make sure it would crank. When I got it home I put a pair of water muffs on it for the water pump, and it ran fine and smoked as normal as a two storke is supposed to. I ran it and touched the engine and it was not hot so it cant be over heating. I located the pee hole and water come out of it but not a hole lot... Some comes out though the exhaust. But the thing is IT COMES OUT THROUGH THE SPARKPLUGS, like literaly through the spark plugs. I took them out and the spark plugs are not wet and each cyclinder is firing fine. Is this suppsed to happen or si something wrong. It runs fine and does not even get hot. You choke the motor and it cranks right up. I am just tryin to find out if there is something wrong here or is this normal becaus i talked to a boat shop manager and he said that is sounds like the motor is gone... Please help...

what is the best way of removing bitimus paint from a fibre glass boat?

Blown head gasket! The water is not coming through the plugs but is being forced out through the gasket and out the plug hole recesses.

i agree with price it could also be the poppet valve above the spark plugs and the excess water leaks from there and drips down the plugs..depending on the engine, if that is not it, replace the head gaskets and look for cracks, if it stillleaks then the motor might have a serious prob..

dose any 1 know how to winterise a jetski?

sounds like at least a head gasket there should be no water in the cylinders only air and the fuel/oil mixture.
