Yamaha 60hp FETO Autolube Question

[vandad]

Hi Guys,
I have recently purchased a boat which has an oil injection system (Autolube). Previousely I owned an engine which I had to pre-mix oil+fuel 50:1 ratio.

I am a bit curious about the oil consumption on Autolube system. I filled the oil tank and after burning about 15ltr of Petrol it has only consumed about 100cc.

If I was going to pre-mix, it would have burnt at least 300cc...?

So does anyone happen to know the rough oil consumption rate on Autolube?

Thanks,

all depend on the RPM it is run at
and if it is functioning properly

Well, this is exactly my question! how do I find out whether my Autolube is working or not! I am quite scared of operating the boat as I don't want to cause any damage...

Any suggestion?

Your Yamaha service manual should give the procedure and specs for testing and measuring in cc or ml the oil output at a given RPM over a specified time period.
Just make sure you are running on a premix small tank and the mix has made it through the system before disconnecting the oil line to measure.
