Re: 1989 Johnson 110

So when I disconnect the VRO I am guessing there is a power supply that shuts off the warning horn and all that for the pump?

Follow the wires coming out of the VRO pump to the connector and unplug it . Follow the wires coming from the VRO oil tank and unplug and remove along with the tank. Cut the oil supply hose going to the pump and plug it. Premix your fuel and your done!
I did it to mine the other day and it took all of 15 minutes.
If you are removing the VRO pump and replacing it with a conventional pump there are 2 threaded holes on the block that it mounts to... See TombigbeeMan's earlier reply.

I bought the fuel pump you guys suggested but I don't see where you wire the pump? There is nothing coming off the new pump.

There are no wires to hook up... You should have 2 threaded holes in the block with a pulse hole in between that effectively powers the pump. Other than that, you have a fuel line in and a fuel line out to the manifold tube.

I have taken the VRO pump off and there is wires running off if it. First off do I just cut/disconnect the wires and second I don't see where the new pump mounts to the block. Have any pictures?

I have replaced the VRO with a new pump and now mix the gas, I bought the one everyone told me to get and at WOT it will not get above 2k RMS, I am considering going back to the VRO, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
