    1995 Evinrude 40 hp 2 cycle seems starving for gas.

    My 95 elec start 40 hp Evinrude is running on both cylinders but will not stay running, it seems starving for gas. If I keep pumping the choke it will run. If I let off of it then it dies. I replaced the VRO pump with a fuel pump that was supposed to be for a 40 hp Evinrude. I connected it to...

    This motor sat for a few years, I have replaced the oil injection fuel pump with a standard one. The new fuel pump has one outlet hose which I connected to the fuel manifold that the old fuel pump was connected to. The engine runs and starts fine even cold, however today when I took it out it...

    Replacing VRO with standard carb E40TEEOD, 95 40hp

    My question is do I get a fuel pump that has 2 fuel lines coming out and connect one to each carb or one that has 1 line coming out and connect it to the current fuel manifold. The reason that this was suggested to me was that the manifold has 3 lines out of it and one of those lines acts in...

    I have decided to replace my failed VRO pump with a standard carburetor. I do not mind mixing and the VRO has caused problems any way. I can not find out where to mount the new carb on the engine. I have heard and read on the left side, sorry I was in the USAF not the Navy so it is left to me...

    Does anybody still use their OMC VRO Fuel Pump for oil injection???

    I have figured out through some guys on here that my fuel pump is bad on my 95 Evinrude 40 hp. All you find on the web is how everyone is by passing them. I am wondering if anyone has good luck with them. I think I had problems years ago that were caused by the VRO pump.

    95 Evinrude 40 is it the Fuel Pump? How do I test?

    This thing has been sitting and it fires great when I spray carb cleaner into the carbs. I have cleaned all the 2 cycle oil out of the lines and bottom of the carburetors. I took the line from the fuel pump to the manifold off at the manifold and when I crank no fuel comes out but when I pump...

    95 40hp 2 stroke can not get fuel to cylinders E40TEEOD

    This motor has been sitting for 3 years. I have fresh gas, and have gone through everything to the carbs including the plastic mixer chamber and fresh gas is getting there. New filter full of fuel. I learned a long time that you have to drain the bottom of the carbs of all the oil that gets in...
