@@134Adventures This makes no sense - you would definitely need to mix the whole tank to 50:1. In saying that, I would top the tank up to full, then add enough oil to cover the capacity of the tank
@@tonyc8694 The ignition on beep has never worked on my setup. So I can’t answer for sure. That being said I have ran this bypass on this engine since the video was posted with zero issues and my dad has ran this bypass on his 70 Evinrude for about 10 years on the original VRO fuel pump.
@@clayayers9527 afraid not sir, I’m still driving this boat about every weekend on the same VRO fuel pump. I just manually mix my oil 50:1 in my fuel tank. 👍🏻
@@134Adventures You are soooo right! The beauty of the VRO system is that is so easily bypassed if you don't want to use it, just like you explained. I get so frustrated when I see guys spending big bucks on a fuel pump to "replace" the VRO pump, such a waste of time and money.
Nice video. You did a great job explaining the entire process!
@@doninvermont2008 thank you! I’m going to try to get some more content soon!
How should I know how much gas is in my fuel tank and mix 50:1 accordingly?
You only need to mix oil for the new fuel you are adding to your tank. Not what is leftover in your tank.

Will this cause The BEEP with the ignition switch first turned On to not work? I have a 1990 70 Johnson

No you don't buddy, just the use the VRO pump as a fuel pump without using its oiling feature like it was explained in this video.
