Replace VRO pump 70 hp Johnson

[CED8ED]

I have a 86 Johnson 70 hp with a leaking VRO pump. It is leaking fuel badly. I want to replace the VRO with a premix pump. Can anyone tell me what pump will work with this motor? The cheaper the better. Thanks in advance.

Is there a valid reason why you do not retain the VRO system?

Yep. The pump has started to leak fuel and I wanted to replace it anyway. I have already lost one motor because of a VRO failure.
