Johnson Fuel Pump / VRO disconnect directions
this is not for all Johnson Evinrude motors. there are variations, for different Horsepower and years. if in doubt ask in the forum.

is your fuel pump side still working. if so you can easily and cheaply do this:
VRO still working.
To convert a still working VRO, disconnect the wiring harness to the VRO pump, also the harness to the oil tank.
You actually remove oil tank for more storage.
Now cut the oil line about 1 ? inchs from motor. Plug the oil line. I use a bolt and hose clamp.
Premix your fuel 50:1 TC-W3 outboard oil.
Disconnect fuel line to top carb, pump primer bulb, until you get mixed gas out of carb line. The gas will change color.
Connect carb line, go boating.
_______________________________________________
if it is not you can go to the fuel pump only. remove the VRO, and it's wiring. on the port side of your motor you will find 3 bosses, 2 bolt holes, and center on with a plug in it. remove plug, install this.

connect you incoming line and out line, plug the pulse line under the carb.
pump you premixed fuel into the motor and go boating.
