Wish I had some hard numbers to post here...but the difference between the "86 150 Evinrude and the '04 150 Honda are HUGE...used to say at WOT she'd suck in insects and small birds through the gas vents...I NEVER left the dock w/out toppin' up...now I can fish several times on a tank...it took some getting used to...
