" RE VRO issues: I have a 225
" RE VRO issues: I have a 225 Johnson, 86' which is continually missing at low rpms 1500 - 2500. At top end it runs very good, but getting there can often mean bogging down and even killing the engine. The plugs especially the lower plugs are usually oily but otherwise appear good. I suspect it may be the VRO since I just had the unit dyno-tested about 40 hours ago and they replaced the ignition pack on the right side. Questions: Since I use the engine for trolling do you think I just need to run it at high rpm for a while to get the oil out of the cylinders?
2 - Should I disconnect the VRO and use per mixed gas? 3 - I have an 80 gal in hull tank -- can you really mix oil and gas in the tank and assume it will stay mixed? "
