    Starved for fuel

    awesome, thank you for the suggestion, will try out this evening. It still has the original ( bypassed) VRO oil injection pump. I was thinking it could be a fuel pump. The guy told me it required 2. Seems odd. Anyone confrim?

    Starved for fuel

    I had it looked at and my rectifier is bad. My tach hasn’t worked. They said this could cause a high speed miss. However even idling through no wake if I give it even like 30% throttle, it’s starves choking. It really is acting like it is starving for fuel. Would a bad rectifier cause this? If...

    1989 Evinrude XP 150. TE150SLCEM Runs OK hooked up to a hose and muffs. Out on the lake it sputters and sounds like it is starved for fuel when pushing throttle to get on plane. Just won’t make power. I also smell gas . Took off all carbs ( which I rebuilt in the winter). Checked all hoses...

    Evinrude XP 150 timing issue

    Hi. I am new to timing, and trying to set it on my 1988 XP150. I have watched several YouTube videos and have the factory ahop manual. I have a TDC tool, and the flywheel marks and measurements are all good with TDC for cylinder 1, according to the manual and videos. However, when clamping on...
