    Oil Ingection System- To inject or not to inject? That is the question!

    Gentlemen,
    I have a 1994 200 HP Evinrude Vendicator model #- E200STLERK and serial #-G05326804. I had an oil pump failure which lead to scaring of piston walls, and the motor is now in the shop for a complete overhaul. When my oil pump failed I was only given one audible warning at idle, and never another audible alert. Since this failure I am leery of the oil ingection system and I'm considering having it disconnected and just mixing the oil in the gas at the pump. Does anyone have an opinion on why I should or shouldn't do this? The guys at the shop said it was a decision I would have to make, but said once a new oil pump was installed I wouldn't have to worry about it anymore. What's ya'lls suggestions?

    I would have them install a new style OMS/VRO pump, you will have to pre-mix anyway after the rebuild. I would also have them verify the alarm systems integrity and maybe install a newer warning horn.

    I took the oil injection system off of my Mercury because I was afraid of system failure
    again. Its true that when you mix it, you never have to worry about it. but it is also a
    time consuming pain it the butt to mix. Take your choice!!

    By the way...Welcome to BBC.

    I installed the newer OMS/VRO on my engine and I am very happy with the results.

    For some interesting reading on the VRO click on this link.
