1991 Johnson VRO

[suttonc]

It seems my 1991 225 Johnson is running very rich...Too much oil! Fouling Plugs! I have read that a lot of people have disconnected their VRO pump and started mixing their own oil/gas..Is this really a good , cheap alternative? Are there many problems that arise with this? If not, help me get started please! Thanks.

suttonc,<br /><br />WHOA! Don't be too quick to condemn something that you're not sure is broken.<br /><br />How much oil are you using compared to the amount of fuel used. Do the math. It should work out to a ratio somewhere arround 50:1. Fifty parts of fuel to one part of oil.<br /><br />You may be just running rich and it has nothing to do with the oil pump.
