How To Disable/Bypass A 2 Stroke OutBoard Oil Injection System

[@Sfrrob1]

Socks and sandals, top stuff. I did an oil pump delete off my older waverunner. Very similar, but I just looped the feed lines to the carbs so I didn't need caps. It works perfectly and has been running spot on for years now.

At 3:25 you take out the arm in the pump. Do you also remove the tiny round brass or copper piece behind that?

[@SwampyOgre425]

I don’t get 2:25. If that lever fails, shouldn’t the spring go where it does full oil injection? It seems backwards. My oil injector spring seems busted so I’m debating on just removing it all

Can you leave all the hoses attached after you removing the pin.

On the Tohatsu 50 can I just cut the two wires going in the reservoir, or will that trigger that sensor to go off?

What wires should you cross to keep the alarms from sounding and the engine from going into limp mode? On the low oil sensors, thanks! Also would it be better to leave all the small hoses attached? They’d be sealed plus I’d be worried they’d pop off if there was a backfire through the carbs (not sure if that’s even possible with the reed valves)

[@3936gamble]

So, just for other people out there, The answer no one could give me, How to TURN off the low oil alarm/idle mode. So cut the oil tank wire harness about two inches from where it plugs into the ECU. Twist the two blue with red stripe wires together. Now Important! Wait a couple seconds, it takes a little time for the alarm to shut off. Now leave everything alone and the alarm will stay off. If the two blue with red stripe wires touch anything or if you unplug the ECU wire plug you have to start over and wait a couple seconds

[@TheCodys8]

When you say wait a couple seconds do you mean to start the motor or what?

Is the alarm going off when it's running or just when you turn the key switch on? I can completely disconnect my oil float wire harness and it doesn't affect the motor. If the motor is running, and the oil float is disconnected, and an alarm is going off it is likely an overheat sensor. They're on the back of the motor near the top spark plug. Little plug in jobbys.

I really cannot understand why you would ever want to disconnect the oil injection system on any 2 stroke machine..Firstly the engine was made to operate with a variable amount of oil feed for all rpms from about 100:1 at idle to 20:1 at full power so the engine gets the optimal amount of lube it needs..Running a compromise premix fuel will always overload the engine with too much oil at low power settings causing more smoking..erratic running..deposits..plug fouling..and unnecessary use of more oil increasing the running costs..and if ill informed people say to me..BECAUSE THE OIL PUMP WILL/CAN FAIL..i reply to that as total BS because the oil injection pumps are built as good as Swiss watches internally and in all my almost 40 years running boats and motorbikes with oil injection,the only pump i ever seen fail was one that had been tampered with by the silly owner butchering it and he paid the price by melting his engine..Dont take them off,just look after them and they will never let you down.

Eric you seem very knowledgable so I'd like to pick your brain for a sec. We have a 90HP Yamaha that idles fine below 2000 but once you go above that it falls on it's face. My husband has managed to eliminate the fuels system as the problem & all we are left with could be the carb is stopped up or it's the self oiler. I researched all day yesterday & found something that said it would do that if the self oiler was going bad, it's kind of like a safety mode to conserve oil. It prevents the engine from revving if there's not enough oil in the mix. I've saved this video & the one on cleaning the carbs will try those steps tonight. Your opinion?

Texas is stupid you can't buy a project outbor motor to get it running and when you get to the lake the game worden will give you a 500 dollar ticket And it doesn't matter if you said I wasn't sure if it wasn't going to work testing it out

[@slippreygritz]

never understood why people do this

[@JetSkiBuyFixPlaySellChannel]

They are worried if there is a problem with the pump or lines it will ruin the engine. They mix the oil with the gas themselves. You still need oil for the bottom end of the engine too.

[@reyyanataergin1364]

+ Slippreygritz They pretend they know better than the engineers.. :-)

[@reyyanataergin1364]

+ Uptin Sinclaire The chances of them forgetting to add the oil to the fuel on each fill-up is much greater then the chances of the oil injection system to fail if the engine is maintained properly.

[@tjj300]

@@reyyanataergin1364 How can you forget to add oil? You do it every time you fill up. You NEVER add gas without oil. Chances are the injection pump will fail before you forget to add oil.

atari8 warez I have a 1990 and had the same mind set you did until last weekend when it failed and my engine lost power and shut itself off in the matter of 10 seconds. Luckily it didn’t seize and it seems to be ok for now but I won’t risk it again. I just had the big tank pump replaced and the whole system freshened up and still it happened. My issue is electrical nothing is telling the pump to turn on and it just so happened for some reason the float on my engine tank stuck. I can run 12v to the pump and it works so it’s just a wire or something but I won’t risk it again. It’s to simple just to dump in oil before leaving to go get the gas unless you are a moron in which case you probably shouldn’t own a boat anyway because it take a good bit of common sense to keep up with one.

Oh why,why,why do people do this......wear socks with sandals???

[@putsstuff]

I am not trolling I only watched 2 videos couldn't go any farther. Give them there money back

[@putsstuff]

You have the absolute worst outboard repair videos anywhere. Why would you disconnect the best oil inection system in the business no need to.

[@ThatBoatGuy]

thx for viewing my videos troll I'm getting paid for you to watching my videos.

[@tractormatt4301]

by the way, evinrude makes the best oil injection system in the business and have years of reliability to back it up.

[@JohnRobertson870]

We remove every Yamaha oil injection pump. They have and will fail.

[@wayne34479]

Not the best. Mine failed, and cost me an engine.

[@MadsWorld34]

i just sold a 1989 150 2 stroke that is still working and never failed.

[@certifiedoutboardtech2382]

Disconnecting oil injection on any outboard (except Johnson/Evinrudes) is a bad move. First of all, the systems are almost bullet proof. Too many people just don't know how to diagnose them. Especially Yamaha (the injection system is actually tied into the trim sensor!). These systems are variable ratio (meaning they deliver less oil at lower rpms (a good thing!), they deliver the actual amount of oil for the given throttle demand. When folks disable these systems and self mix, they end up using too much oil "to be sure"; that contributes to sticking rings, excess carbon, and less than optimum performance. Also, the oil modules for these systems have to be "tricked" so you don't get warning buzzer. It's just not a smart move.

[@lancehughes4132]

If you're really a certified tech, then you of all people should recognize how prone to failure this injection system is, especially on older outboards.

[@certifiedoutboardtech2382]

@@lancehughes4132 Well Lance, I'm not sure what benefit there would be in lying about my career? Isn't the idea here to try and pass on helpful information? I'm telling you oil injection failure is extremely rare. Now water contamination in oil reservoirs, over oiling of OMC VRO pumps because you blow the fuel diaphragm with lean spits, improper supply tubing on a system with check valves....all those things happen, and 99% of the time, those failures are in the captain's seat. Just because you blow your power head, and you and/or you techs lack the ability to properly diagnose the real cause of the failure, that's no reason to remove good functioning oil injection systems.

[@oneninerniner3427]

I know some two cycle engines have an oil feed line to some of the crankshaft bearings. So if you disable the oil injection system it will cut off lube to those bearings. Premixed fuel won't get enough oil into those bearings. Besides oil injection is one of the best things to ever happen to a two cycle engine. And Yamaha's are among the very best, they don't fail! Ever! If you have an engine failure it's not the oil injection's fault, it's intake air leaks, carburetor problems, water in fuel, poor fuel, timing is off, bad or wrong spark plugs, wrong plug gap, etc.

What about the oil sencor?

Great video, I have the exact engine. Thinking about doing this, as it has been sitting a very long time.
