Re: Vro Tank Swap

yes it will, your old part number has been superseded to 177284. check out this website http://www.usboatsupply.com just click on johnson/evinrude>>parts by catalog, make sure you allow the pop ups. you can use the get price window to cross reference part numbers.

Perfect! I had the exact same question! A guy on ebay has 5 brand new 177284's for $49.95 + $9.00 shipping. Go here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VRO-...5982418QQptZBoatQ5fPartsQ5fAccessoriesQ5fGear

Re: Vro Tank Swap

probably nothing wrong with the old one, however i have a 1987 mako
with a 1987 110 johnson, with 110 original hours, my oil tank is under
my center console, hard to get to, noticed my bulb is hard as a rock
not that i cant replace it, but i want to relocate it to the rear
under a corner seat, maybe i will use the old one with new hose
and bulb, just thought to get a new one, i know these are
finicky

Re: Vro Tank Swap

Those bulbs should be hard as a rock from my experiance. Mine is on my 90 hp Johnson.

Mine was as well when I used it. Don't have one now as I am pre-mixing.
