I have a 1993 Johnson 115 J115TLET. Where can I find info on the proper hose connections to the VRO? I think I may have reversed the pulse and oil hoses but I want to be sure before I run the engine. As someone warned me the Clymer manual is worthless. Thanks in advance for any help that's available.<br /><br />Bill

Yep! I did have those hoses reversed. Thanks again for your help and I did print out the diagram for future needs.<br /><br />Bill

The oil hose has a 1/4" ID and the pulse hose has a 5/16" ID, must have been a real loose and a real tight fit when you installed them. :) <br /><br />This link will give you a better understanding and a cut-a-way picture of the "VRO" pump<br /><br /> http://continuouswave.com/whaler/reference/VRO.html

Thanks Seahorse. Just goes to show that a good eyeball check is worth a lot before you start a project.<br /><br />Bill
