I forgot, does anyone have any information for the VRO setup, where the oil tank goes, how to set up a non-VRO for VRO?

Spare is saying premix your fuel and dont even bother with trying to hook the VRO back up (his fingers were a little loose on the keyboard, he meant to say TRASH)

OK. I though it was something I hadn't heard of yet.
VRO not worth putting back on the motor?

you have two choices here 1. fix the head gasket and run the boat with no VRO
2. throw the motor in the trash now and do nothing! Cause when the VRO sh!ts the bed you will throw all in the trash anyway, and its cheaper to just do it now!

Right now I plan on swapping the power head from one to the other. My Johnson runs but has problems with the lower section. The Evinrude, like I said, has a blown head gasket. So I'm making one good unit from two so-so assemblies.

as i remember you can't even swap those 2 powerheads as they have different midsections and different powerhead adapters, plus you wouldn't take the wiring off one to the other as they will not inter change. the red plug is the only thing those 2 motors have in common.

The wiring on the Evinrude is trashed. I was planning on using the Johnson power head on the other mid section. I'll take a look in the repair manual and see if the power heads will swap.
So far they look the same, bolt pattern that is. I haven't gottne the Johnson power head off yet.

Look closely at the water jackets on the block and head to make sure there is not a leak on one or the other, it will be evident by discoloration different than the majority of the locations on the gasket.
See if they use the same carburetors also.
