Can anyone give me the part # for the thermostats in this motor? I also would like to know if the VRO pump on this motor is the same as a 1992 Evinrude 70.


Thanks, Jason

jason, you can look up engine diagram and all parts here:
"http://www.evinrude.com/en-US/Accessories/Literature/?popup=true"
you need several parts if going that far.

also if you have the original oil mixing system, i would disable it, and go to premix, replacement pumps are expensive, as the original had problems.

Thanks Tashasdaddy.

I tried to look at that site earlier and it was down. I had a friend of mine give me this motor and it didn't have a vro pump or thermostats. I am trying to use a little chugger pump but don't know if that is enough or I might have to go through the carbs. The motor has a hard time idling in the water and seems a little sluggish.
