Oil in gas?

[1dumbazz]

I have a question I’m sure one of you can answer
i have a 2001 evinrude 150 with dfi my oil Reservoir
is not connected can I ad oil in the gas if so what’s the ratio?

 

[racerone]

No you can not mix oil with the gas on that motor !

 

[Tassie 1]

The oil tank is disconnected

what should he do then?

 

[GA_Boater]

Connect it.

 

[racerone]

On a direct injected motor the air goes through a throttle body.---------The oil is injected into the motor where it is needed.-----The fuel is injected into the cylinder after the ports are closed.-----So part of this motor operates like a 4 stroke.------Computers help in running a motor like that.-----So no you can not operate this motor on 50:1 mixed in a fuel tank.

 

[1dumbazz]

Thank you racerone I was about to make a huge mistake

 

[1dumbazz]

If the oil tank is disconnected could that be apart of my no fuel situation?

 

[racerone]

A dealer ( if you can find one ) would hook up the oil tank.----Making sure there are no leaks.-----Then they might run the oil pump via a computer.-----Verify all system are ready to run.------Then start this motor.----Did I say this technology is not for working on at home !

 

[1dumbazz]

yes! However I did call to make a appointment
I’ll give the $300 but he can’t even look at it for another 3 1/2 weeks

 

[racerone]

Are you ready to accept the fact that getting a " high tech " motor looked at is not the same as marching into your local pub.-----The local pub may have a pretty waitress / bartender with 30 minutes training that can pour a perfect pint..-------She likely can not set-up your boat on 30 minutes training.

 

[1dumbazz]

Ok ok I am sorry to have bothered you!

 

[Faztbullet]

You have to hook up oil tank and bleed it, if not it will fail. Do you have the dual lines for oil system?

 

[1dumbazz]

Yes I believe it does have two lines
I would show a picture but it never lets me upload
it says the file is too big

 

[Chris1956]

Gee, Was the oil tank disconnected when you got this motor? If so it was fundamentally messed up.

Maybe it is not a DFI anymore, but was converted to EFI or carbs, with a new powerhead?

 

[Scott Danforth]

Yes I believe it does have two lines
I would show a picture but it never lets me upload
it says the file is too big

there is a photo tutorial in the rules and guidlines forum

 

[1dumbazz]

[No message]

 

[racerone]

I would say that the model number agrees with what the powerhead is.

 

[1dumbazz]

What does that mean racer?

 

[racerone]

???----There was speculation by some that you powerhead might have been replaced with an earlier / perhaps different style of motor !!!

 

[1dumbazz]

Ohhh ok yeah I don’t think it was converted
it looked to me that the old line going from the
oil res to that t valve in the motor was removed
because I found a line that matched in one of the storage that was dried up and cracked and
the length was a perfect match
