Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this fuel pump fits my engine?
A: This pump is designed for Evinrude and Johnson 150 HP and 175 HP V6 60-degree motors. Verify your engine's horsepower, cylinder configuration, and VRO system before ordering. Check the OEM part number 600-156-01 against your engine's parts manual.
Q: Why do I need to premix oil and gas with this pump?
A: This fuel pump replaces the VRO (Variable Ratio Oiling) system and does not inject oil automatically. You must premix 2-stroke oil into your fuel tank at a 50:1 ratio (1 pint oil per 6 gallons of gas) to ensure proper engine lubrication.
Q: What is included in the package?
A: The package includes the complete fuel pump assembly, fuel hoses with Oetiker clamps, and a tie strap mounting kit as pictured.
Q: How often should I replace the fuel pump?
A: Fuel pumps typically last several seasons with proper maintenance. Replace the pump if you notice symptoms such as hard starting, loss of power, engine surging, or visible fuel leaks. Inspect fuel lines annually for cracks or deterioration.
Q: What are signs that my fuel pump is failing?
A: Common symptoms include difficulty starting, engine stalling at idle or under load, inconsistent RPM, reduced top speed, and fuel leaking from pump seals or connections.
