Re: oil injection removal Merc V6 only

You need part number 43453 if it is available. That retains the pump driveshaft bushing and plugs the hole where the pump mounts. Then remove the oil components and the warning module. You'll also need to remove the fitting that the oil tank pressure hose attaches to and plug the hole in the block.

Order three stickers (37-818029 1), one to mount near the fuel fitting on the motor, one for the dash, and one near the fuel fill fitting on the boat. They'll alert the operator that the gas needs to have oil added. One frequent problem we see here regards the infamous "brother-in-law" that forgets to add oil to the gas and roaches the motor.

You should probably replace the fuel lines where the fitting for the oil T's into the fuel line with a single piece of fuel line.

What do you do about the oil alert system. Does the beeper continue to beep.
I have a 200 offshore that just wiped the plastic gear. So, there is nothing rotating to tell the oil injection warning system what to do. Thought I would just start pre mixing rather than breaking down a motor.
I could use some advice here.

Hope you don't mind me asking but why are you removing it?

Sorry scott but you have to break it down.. Humm didn't I already tell you that or is this a differnt post. Anyway, if the gear is gone, the correct thing to do is tear it down. However, if you want, just start pre-mixing and in not too long it will probably tear itself down.
