Holy smoke, I forgot I put this video on the internet LOL, believe it or not, I still have the same setup and it is running fine. I had one injector that i didn't even know was getting weak that the dealer found during a checkup. I really want the new G2 but i don't have the heart to get rid of this motor because it runs so damn well. Still powerful and still starts like its mad! I'm going to post an updated cold start video soon.
If I ever had to buy a new motor, it would be an E Tec. The Johnson GT 150 that I currently own is probably the best outboard motor made in its time. It is a gas and oil motor. Every year it starts right up after sitting for just under a year with 87 octane crap gas, but it never complains.
Knock on wood, but i have not done any maintenance on it. fill the tank with gas, fill the oil tank and use it. After fishing wash down the boat flush the motor with salt away and put it to sleep until next time. This motor has been great!
I have a 2015 E-Tec 115 and the only problems I had with it are the spring inside the cooling system that controls the flow of water so the engine runs hotter to burn the richer fuel do it won’t pollute when running around 2.000 rpm’s was replaced with a lighter strength spring and then a stuck closed thermostat where I replaced both just in case and the gas primer bulb. About $100 in parts and maybe $400 in labor. The downtime waiting for the repairs and lack of boating enjoyment sucked more than the costs

What's it run with the 150 and how big your boat?
@@reddjohnson9728 I could get it to 50mph with 2 people in it. sadly a year ago she died.....i was hurt....
That Evinrude ETEC is a serious machine!
You darn right it is, hard to believe i waited so long to get one. no more starter grinding and smoke.....
Still running strong!
Wow, that beast starts up like it's mad!...Great sounding E-tec
Have the same motor on a Wellcraft 180 Fisherman center console. 50mph with ease, and it sips fuel. Evinrude owner for life!
I feel the same way bro, Evinrude, just feels right when you look behind you going down the river!
Mine (this one) finally died last year, cpu and a cylinder probem...
Please don't forget to send us more vids about all the maintenance you do for ur E-TEC.
I'm going to post a new video of it soon
She finally died on my last year....Im hurt...
It has been flawless on the water. Everyone who goes out with me are very impressed by it.

@@DogmanOutdoorsEntertainment Nooo 😪. I wanted so much for the etecs to be legendary. Kind of an oxymoron, but when running right, they were a dream.
