1987 V20 fish (cuddy) with 1996 V6 Johnson Oceanpro 150. Just replaced VRO pump on this new to me boat and was just wondering what kind of distance/hours does 2 stroke oil generally last? First time out in boat with family, I burned 45 gallons of fuel (took a trip around Staten Island and visited Statue of Liberty). I put the boat, I feel, through it's paces. and after I fueled up, I forgot to check the VRO tank. I know I physically put in 1 gallon before trip at first fillup. Just wondering if I should refill before using again. Thanks. (no pics yet)

you should be close between 40-1 and 50-1. so for every gallon of tcw-3 you put in the tank you should burn around 40-50 gallons of fuel.

And ALWAYS fill up your oil tank every time you get fuel. This is just a safety precaution as you never know if the low oil alarm will sound or not.

You sould also keep an extra gallon on the boat as a back up.

The best thing you could have done and saved money was to never replaced the pump and mixed gas from now on!
O well good luck!
