Let me rephrase that......3.3 mpg, that is terrible. You might as well be running a 2 stroke outboard, getting that mpg.

3.3 is fine for a 2 stroke! I was running 86 Yamaha & 89 Evinrude both 175 hp average was the same for both 2.5
I will be happy to get the same with the Sea Ox??

I am only averaging about 2.25 out of my 2000 Johnson, but those loopers are known for drinking gas and oil so I can't really complain.

CY, what kinda milage are you getting? We got the same setup. My 170 I/O has been bored .040 oversized, and I can see it could take a little more fuel. Maybe Ill rejet the carb with a couple size smaller jets and give it a try.
