You did not show the right position of ballbearrinns mounthing.Iff the ballbeaerring is turnd opside down the oil will not stay in but just go thru ! check this

We used an open cage bearing, the oil is designed to go through the bearing and pool in the bottom of crank case. There's a recirc line that takes the oil form the bottom bearing recirculates to the top bearing and lubes it. We know this because every motor that's ever been submerged, if it's not pickled correctly-in our opinion it should be taken apart-the bottom bearing sits in a pool of water that is then pumped to the top bearing.

@OexchangeАй бұрын
John 225hp takes a specially designed nonVRO fuel pump. One style is just two fuel pumps put together the other basically looks like the VRO pump with the VRO pump not apart of the unit. If you're just using a single pump it will not provide enough fuel.

@OexchangeАй бұрын
The most important way to know if a motor is running correctly is if it will idle. Outboards and other engines can have many things wrong with them and they will still run at high speed but will not idle. As always start with a compression and spark test before you do any diagnostic work. If it passes those tests consider rebuilding the carburetors.

nice info Tim! I will add Suzuki also has a manifold-type oil injection. Not sure but think they both use the same Mikuni oiling unit. The interesting thing about the Suzuki is it starts to atomize the oil after about 3000rpm, making for a more uniform coverage on the crank. Does the Yamaha also do that?
@Oexchange3 ай бұрын
Good question! It does not. It dribbles oil into the intake behind the carburetors and relies on the airflow to atomize it.

I don't have a vro. But I was kind of looking at one and considering possibly buying it. Question I would ask is why would you run this system at all? Could it not just be removed and you just go to a straight pre-mix set up like any other motor?
@chrishoward85727 ай бұрын
This is what people do on other outboard motors. For example on my Yamaha motor the oil injection pump is separate to the fuel pump, so it can be disabled more simply. In this case with the VRO they are both within the same unit/assembly, so I'm not sure how easy it is. I have no experience with the VRO personally so can't comment. Give it a google I'm sure there is info out there of others who have done it or tried.

We do recommend disconnecting the VRO whenever possible but some owner's do prefer to keep it. We often see them fail so it's very important to make sure it's working correctly.We consider the OMC system the most unreliable system and non-VRO pumps are available for less than $100.

He has me worried but the motor has never missed and beat and has been serviced once a year by a Yamaha dealer since new in 2011. It's a struggle to justify spending money on a 4/stroke. Has anyone got one of these and know how many hours people got out of them, I hear around 1500 to 2500 before rebuild required.
