Probably the Best 2-stroke motor but all this posts about the Evinrude being the best and too bad they were discontinued. They were mostly discontinued because they “didn’t sell” when compared to the modern 4-stroke. More smoke, louder and not as reliable. Just the facts. I’ve been in the marine business now for almost 25 years. I have almost 30 marinas that are my dealers. Back in 2020 I decided to buy a new fishing boat. I got input from a lot of my “good” dealers on what was best. Reliability being the most important factor. Not a single one suggested an Evinrude. Yamaha than Suzuki were tops then Mercury and Honda and Evinrude last every time. And these larger dealers offered all or most of these engines and after developing a long term business relationship with them they were willing to give me their honest opinions

They killed off an extremely good product line because somebody else drop dollars in their pockets.

That's changed from "Why you should buy an Evinrude E-Tec" into "Run away as fast as possible". Parts support is drying up fast for the E-Tec motors and the remaining support will be to meet warranty obligations they have. Once the warranty period expires on the 2020 motors, BRP will sell off/stop parts support on all Evinrude areas that is not consistently profitable. Dealers for Evinrude the certified shops are trying to figure out when and how they want to stop servicing them.

No oil changes, 5 year warranty and it self-winterizes. Takes 2 minutes to winterize it. Four-stroke 150's can't stay with it either. Maybe you should take a look before you bad-mouth 'em.

Nothing but problems with my 50 hp e-tec. Wouldn't start, stalls randomly, goes into limp mode when running, etc. Replaced the battery, cleaned out fuel tank then filled with fresh no ethanol gas, changed out ECU & fuel filter, swapped spark plugs, etc. 2 trips to the shop, + calls into the manufacturer & $2,500 later the problems persist. Been nothing but a money pit and headache, so I will be swapping it out for a Yamaha or Mercury.

@@edharm8446 Turns out it was those e-tec fancy high pressure injectors. They have very small margins for error in pressure & temp. I think the oil wasnt circulating properly within the injectors (its used to cool them) & was causing a temp spike so the ECU would cut the fuel. Went with a never used 2015 Yamaha 50 hp 4 stoke with a $2500 credit for what I already spent. Wouldve been as much for new e-tec injectors + labor anyways. Been trouble fee ever since.

@@matthewthomassen6127 Hey Matthew, was talking with an Alumacraft/Evinrude dealer yesterday and for the first time I heard a dealer admit what was one of the main issues with early Etec's. In the design the oil lines were routed near high temp areas of the engine resulting in failed lines and seized power heads. This flaw has been corrected since and new routing implemented throughout the engines. Combine the mentioned issue with the injectors and yeah there were issues. Second the injectors are precision instruments, so the days of careless fuel handling, storage, fuel life, and water in the fuel system are critical to proper injector performance.
