    115 etec dying

    I just bought a new 08 evinrude etec. It runs awesome but.......... when I start it and let it warm up a minute then put it in gear it dies... start it back up, put it in gear and it dies.... it only has about 4 or 5 hours on it. they told me that it could be the double oiling thing and just loading up or something???? will this go away? is it normal? or does it need to go back???

    how many hours does it double oil????


    thanks,
    dusty

    Ask your dealer to tell you what software revision number is in the motor, or ask him to call dealer tech service for the latest one.

    The extra oil (not double oil) breakin for your 60° motor is 5 hours.
