Glad to see this done, I got a `90 with a VRO thats been disconnected for a while, but I'd like to free up room to aid in lower unit removal. May go this route. Smokes more because you're running a constant 50:1 instead of variable rate :) BTW, dig the tall beer in the background =) A must for O/B work!

I have a 2000 70 hp Johnson with the same issue and want to change out the vro with a non vro replacement pump but unsure about which part number to use, can you help?
@cage-rattler7 жыл бұрын
Nice video. Just finished doing my 91 60 hp evinrude as well and trying to make sure im unhooking all the correct wires. Obviously the wire harness from the vro gets unhooked but wondering if I also need to disconnect the 2 wires coming up from the tank. brown and black I believe. and will disconnecting these cause the overheat alarm not to work?

Hey Jeff - thanks for posting the video. I got the same issue with my 70hp. Couple questions for you, if you dont mind: (1.) At 4:10 you mention a "Pulse" connection. When replacing for the new pump, all we gotta do is reconect the same line at the new pulse connection? (2.) Is it still running OK? (3.) Other than the "bed" you built for the new pump, are there any other necessary adapations? Thanks so much!

@stephenbaber64299 жыл бұрын
This video is very helpful. I'm doing the same replacement. However one question is about the tube coming off the bottom of the engine. At 4:16 in the video you can clearly see this tube. Was this the old oil line? Does it need to be capped off?
@stephenbaber64299 жыл бұрын
Stephen Baber I got advice on this. It is the fuel return line from the carburetor front cover. It connects to the bottom of the carburetor cover to recapture fuel from the carbs when the engine is tilted up out of the water.

Do you know if there is a spot on the motor that has the serial number as from the sticker on the rear... mine just tore and I only have half the sticker. I can't imagine that sticker would be the only spot to find it.

I have a 130hp Evinrude and was going to convert to this pump as well. On the back of the pump there is a middle hole, which I believe is the pulse if you are mounting it directly against the motor. Did you have to cover or plug up that pulse hole since you are getting pulse through a hose? Also, how is it running now? Does this fuel pump work well even when giving it full throttle?
@alexsmith26482 жыл бұрын
Did you ever figure out if you had to block off the back side of the fuel pump If you just use the pulse port / connector ?

You need a water pump impeller....! Without the VARIABLE VRO, and now at a CONSTANT 50/1 premix ratio, you'll be just a tad oil rich at all throttle settings except wide open...

@philldownes86854 жыл бұрын
best thing to do with any vro motor is get rid of VRO. its troublesome can destroy your motor and way to expensive to replace. best off with old style pump with extremely good reliability and then just give it its proper mix of 50 to 1... the vrp main problem is starving the motor of oil.

That pump did not work on my 40 horse I put the vro back on because it's a much bigger pump fix the air diaphragm works fine
