disconnest auto oiler on johnson 1995 60HP

[Toad64]

I am new to the forum so HI ALL!
I have a 1995 Johnson 60HP outboard motor and want to disconnect the auto oiler. I have had the engine for only a little while and have no problems with it, just would feel better if I disconnected it. Also it was recommended that I do it. Can anyone tell me how this is be done? Is it something I could do my self or is it better to take and let someone do it?

Thanks

From what I've read it's a matter of disconnecting them and premixing.

Thank you.
If i disconnect it will it destroy it. Can i replace it with just a fuel pump?

No. If you disconnect the oiling side of it it will just act as a fuel pump for your 50:1 fuel mix and save the cost of another fuel pump.
