mercury autoblend oil system

[mikey1]

I've recently bought a 1987 Bass Tracker with a 45 HP Mercury outboard. What is involved in removing the "autoblend" and just pre-mixing my gas & oil? The system appears to be working but the fill cap is broken and apperently no repair parts (diafram etc.) are availible. mikey1

Hmmm..is this the remote tank setup?

Really easy.Mix yourself a tank of 50 to 1 and plug it into your engine, then kick that autoblend to the curb.

And the really easy way to go when your autoblend is not working: Fill both the fuel tank and the oil tank with pre-mix.<br /><br />It then doesn't matter if the autoblend works and you won't have to dismantle anything.<br /><br />This, ofcurse, only works if your oil system is not leaking.

Take it out and throw it in the trash.
