OIL REQUIREMENTS
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Evinrude/Johnson XD100, Evinrude Direct
Injection, or Evinrude/Johnson XD25™ out-
board oils are recommended for use in your
Evinrude E-TEC outboard.
Evinrude/Johnson brand oils are formulated
to give best engine performance while con-
trolling piston and combustion chamber de-
posits, providing superior lubrication, and
ensuring maximum spark plug life.
Evinrude/Johnson XD100 oil is preferred
for your Evinrude E-TEC outboard. It is for-
mulated with special additives for cleaner
burning and lower consumption. This syn-
thetic blend oil also provides superior lubrica-
tion and maintains top performance.
For added protection and cost reduction, an
authorized dealer can program your Evinrude
E-TEC outboard EMM to cut normal oil con-
sumption in half using Evinrude/Johnson
XD100 as compared to using a conventional
oil. Only an authorized Evinrude dealer
can program your outboard for this bene-
fit.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. Follow the instructions in this
section explicitly. Improper handling of
fuel could result in property damage,
serious injury or death.
Leaking fuel is a fire and explosion haz-
ard. All parts in the fuel system should
be inspected frequently and replaced if
signs of deterioration or leakage are
found. Inspect the fuel system each
time you refuel, each time you remove
the engine cover and annually.
Follow these instructions to ensure
safety when handing fuel:
• Always turn off the engine before fuel-
ing.
•
Never permit anyone other than an
adult to refill the fuel tank.
•
Do not fill the fuel tank all the way to
the top or fuel may overflow when it
expands due to heating by the sun.
If Evinrude/Johnson XD100, Evinrude Direct
Injection, or Evinrude/Johnson XD25 oils are
not available, you must use an oil that meets
NMMA TC-W3 certification standards.
• Remove portable fuel tanks from the
boat before fueling.

Always wipe off any fuel spillage.
Do not smoke, or allow open flames,
or sparks or use electrical devices
such as cellular phones in the vicinity
of a fuel leak or while fueling.
