BRP Evinrude E-TEC G2 150 HP Installation & Predelivery Manual page 87

Additives
The only fuel additives approved for use in Evin-
rude E-TEC outboards are:
®
•
Evinrude 2+4 fuel conditioner
•
Evinrude Fuel System Cleaner.
NOTICE
Use of other fuel additives can result in poor
performance or engine damage.
Evinrude 2+4 Fuel Conditioner will help prevent
gum and varnish deposits from forming in fuel
system components and will remove moisture
from the fuel system. It can be used continuously
and should be used during any period when the
outboard is not being operated on a regular basis.
Its use will reduce spark plug fouling, fuel system
icing, and fuel system component deterioration.
Evinrude Fuel System Cleaner will help keep fuel
injectors in optimal operating condition.
Fuel System Priming
Priming the Fuel System
WARNING
Fuel vapors are highly flammable. Perform
the following procedure in a well ventilated
area. Extinguish all smoking materials and
make certain no ignition sources are present.
Evinrude E-TEC G2 models are equipped with an
electric fuel lift pump. The electric fuel lift pump
runs continuously.
Make sure the battery is fully charged and reads a
minimum of 12 VDC. Turn the Master Power / Key
Switch to the ON position to start the fuel priming
process.
The high-pressure fuel circuits and injectors will
prime as the outboard is cranked with the starter.
Observe all fuel lines, both in the boat and on the
outboard. Repair any fuel leaks.
WARNING
Failure to check for fuel leaks could allow a
leak to go undetected, resulting in fire or
explosion and may cause personal injury or
property damage.
Oil Requirements
NOTICE
If the outboard will be operated in tempera-
tures below freezing (32°F, 0°C), use Evinrude
XD100.
Recommended Lubricants
NOTICE
Failure to follow these recommendations
could void the outboard warranty if a lubrica-
tion-related failure occurs.
Evinrude XD100, or XD50 outboard oils are rec-
ommended for use in Evinrude E-TEC G2 out-
boards. If these oils are not available, use a TC-
W3 certified SYNTHETIC oil.
Evinrude XD100 outboard oil is recommended for
all conditions and applications.
