I believe, and just for the record, that Ocean Pro is Evinrude : Ocean Runner is Johnson

Thanks guys.

Your right my mistake Ocean Runner not Pro. It's surprising that a motor ten years newer than the 235 I currently have only weighs 36 lbs less.


The reason I was asking is that I decided not to rebuild my 235 and found a good deal a on a nice used one instead. I was hoping to shed more weight in the process though. But for $1600.00 with a 4 bladed stainless steel propeller, hydraulic steering cylinder , VRO tank and harness, I not going to argue.

Sounded like a great deal til ya got to the VRO tank...clean it out REEL good and make a fish-bowl outta it...anything but don't use it for it's designed and intended use ...no kiddin'...if ya want that motor to last, pre-mix that oil/gas and trash that VRO system ;) ;D ...

Re: 94 150 Ocean Pro Weight??
 

I will tell you what I will give you $1700 and let you keep the oil tank!! ;) ;D

Re: 94 150 Ocean Pro Weight??
 

No worries. A new VRO on its way. I agree premixing is the safe way to go but to much smoke for me when trolling :(

I've always had good luck with VROs on the engines I had up to now. Installing a new VRO pump will give me the comfort factor I'm looking for.

OK, OK...it's yo bote ;) ...

i dont understand i have VRO on my big boat and its the easyiest thing i do to the boat add oil to the tank every now and then its nice had the boat for 3 years and no trouble.

Re: 94 150 Ocean Pro Weight??
 

Is not the 3 years you have had, it the one time that the pump or something else isn't working! Thats when the motor goes boom and having a VRO pump isn't so important anymore cause there is no motor.

Re: 94 150 Ocean Pro Weight??
 

yea but if they do blo for a mechanical failer then the warrenty will get me two new outboards so no worrys to me

Re: 94 150 Ocean Pro Weight??
 

If you have a motor with a VRO still with warranty then you are the only one!!

They make oil injection still, but the old VRO's are no longer made.

maby vro is different from what we are talkin about here is my out boards on my big boat.

i know that that is a 2000 model but i have a 2003 that looks just like it.

Re: 94 150 Ocean Pro Weight??
 

That's the point for me...no warranty+no VRO... ;) ...

Re: 94 150 Ocean Pro Weight??
 

my mechanic told me the same thing disconect it he said cause one day its just gonna stop

as I remember back in the early 90's I had a 15 ft whaler super sport with a 60 hp comerical evinrude and it had the vro built in the tank and it just stopped working and it cost me 1100.00 to get motor rebuilt :(
