oiler on 1996 150 johnson

[steven]

wat is involved in removing the oiler on a 1996 150 johnson, its not a vro, gt or fast strike. i want to remove it if i can and if it dont cost much. i dont like the oilers. oh and does any one know where i could download a manuel for it for free:(

So I gather you have an oil injection model and not an EFI?

Finding a manual online will be hard. You might find a parts break out for ordering parts.

Does this page help?

yea that page helped as far as informing me on it but im still worried about a misfunction and it causing it to blow, and yea the idiot that had it is a retard it is a oil injected carbed engine oh and i still need to know wat that red nob does it lookes to have a fitting in the center of for checking fuel pressure

What I've done when I'm worried about my oil injection is run premix. I then mark the oil tank with a marker and see how quick the oil level goes down.

Running a litttle rich is better then blowing a powerhead in my opinion. ;)
