2–STROKE ENGINE OIL AND FUEL
Filling the On-Engine Oil Tank
Remove the top cap of the engine cover.
Next, remove the oil fill cap. Fill the oil tank
with outboard lubricant. Oil capacity is 2 gal-
lons (7.5 liters)
Replace the filler cap and tighten securely. If
you run the tank empty, you MUST prime the
oil system before using the engine.
Priming the Oil System
The oil system of Evinrude E-TEC G2 out-
boards is primed at the factory.
Priming the oil system is only required if:
• The oil system is disassembled for service
or parts replacement; or
• The oil tank is run out of oil.
NOTE: If the oil tank is run out of oil, the EMM
will activate SHUT DOWN mode and set Fault
Code 33. See “NO OIL” on page 31.
After refilling an empty oil tank or servicing the
oil system, air MUST be removed from the oil
system before operating the outboard.
Prime the oil system by performing the Long-
Term Storage (Winterization) on page 44
TWO times.
If available, Evinrude Diagnostic software
v 6.1 or higher may be used to prime the oil
system ONE time.
