Re: running an outboard without oil
Once its out of warrantee....ditch the oil injection and premix the oil and fuel. I cant tell you how many motors have fried from the injector pump going out at WOT. My motor has 1200 hours on it using premix and the compression is still 110 all around. Now if the lower units would last that long they would probally go out of business. West Marine has this nifty little bottle that tells you how much oil for how much fuel. Its alot easier than trying to figure out how much oil to put in when you fill up with 36.5 gallons.
