225 Johnson ocean runner vro or premix

joe b graham:
I have a 1995 225 Oceana runner what do y’all recommend keeping the vro or premix the gas?

wingtime:
Absolutely keep the VRO. They are very reliable.

wingtime:
BTW in 1995 it is no longer VRO it is an updated system called Oil Metering System (OMS). Here is a light read for you:

Capt. Bob:
Agree. :idea:

The motion to remove the oil injection comes up here (and on every other forum dealing with boats and motors) every so often. If it's broke, fix it. If it works, keep it.

Good luck :thumright:

Levi:
I don't know about the newer vro but my mechanic told me to  delete it on my 1992 225 VRO because it wasn't IF but WHEN the VRO let go that it would blow the powerhead before I could realize it was bad.
