I just inherited a 2001 Johnson 40 HP Jet motor. The model number is J40JPLSIA. There was no owners manual included and I wanted to confirm the gas to oil mixture before I took it out. I'm assuming it's probably 50:1. If anyone can confirm this for me it would be much appreciated.

According to the parts breakdown, it's a vro engine. Oil in one tank and gas in another and it mixes for you.

Ok. Thanks for the information. I'm glad I asked before going out.

The vro pump is still intact on the engine isn't it, it has not been converted to a premix pump has it?
