Evinrude E-TEC Operator's Manual page 5

Dear New Evinrude E-TEC Owner,
Congratulations on the purchase of our industry-leading Evinrude E-TEC outboard
engine. Your purchase comes with the full commitment and support of the BRP Out-
board team. Your new engine will provide you with years of reliable enjoyment.
The many benefits of the Evinrude E-TEC engine will add hours of fun for you and
your family and your time on the water...
Power and performance...
An Evinrude E-TEC engine is up to 300 pounds lighter than competitive outboard en-
gines. This translates to faster planing with less bow rise so you can see the open
water in front of you. You demand performance and immediate response. That's
why instant throttle response and hole shot are so important. The key with Evinrude
E-TEC is that every revolution is a power stroke. That means twice the power
strokes of a 4-stroke. Plus the computer-controlled engine management system de-
livers the perfect fuel mix directly to the combustion chamber for hair-trigger re-
sponse. The natural 2-stroke advantage combined with our super-natural fuel-
injection and combustion system means that you will gain up to 23% more torque
than a comparable 4-stroke outboard engine. Simply stated – more torque, instant
throttle response, less weight, and more power – Evinrude E-TEC will deliver.
In addition, Evinrude E-TEC engines require no dealer scheduled maintenance for
three years or 300 hours. No inspections or adjustments, no changing gearcase
lube, no spring tune-ups – for a full three years, then every three years after that.
This means more time on the water for you and your family.
History & heritage...
Evinrude outboard engines are manufactured in Sturtevant, Wisconsin, in a state-of-
the-art manufacturing facility that is less than 30 miles away from where Ole
Evinrude invented the first outboard engine more than 100 years ago. One hundred
years of life on the water...and counting. And, Evinrude is part of the BRP family of
products; inclusively, over 200 years of heritage. Powerful brands including legend-
® ®
ary names such as Ski-Doo snowmobiles, Sea-Doo personal watercraft and
®
boats, and Can-Am off-road and on-road products. No other company is able to
leverage all of their brands in such an effective way to bring consumers the most in-
novative and expertly engineered products. Only BRP does this.
Thank you again for your confidence in Evinrude E-TEC engines. As you enjoy your
time on the water, we'd love to hear from you online and encourage you to share your
