FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
No dealer-scheduled maintenance for the first three years of normal recreational use? Really?
•
Yes! Bombardier Recreational Products knows you want to spend your time on the water, not servicing your Evinrude
E-TEC outboard. There are no valves to adjust, belts to service, chains to replace, or oil to change. We do recommend
pre-launch inspections of your outboard at each use and at regular intervals. Salt water applications require minimal
additional inspections and lubrication.
What kind of oil does my Evinrude E-TEC outboard require?
•
Any TC-W3 oil may be used. The outboard can be programmed by your Dealer to run on Evinrude/Johnson XD100 oil
for lower oil consumption. Refer to FILLING THE OIL TANK on page 16; see also OIL REQUIREMENTS on page 16.
Do I need to mix oil into my fuel?
•
No. Evinrude E-TEC outboards do not require any mixing of oil and fuel.
What fuel octane is recommended for my Evinrude E-TEC outboard?
•
Evinrude E-TEC outboards require a minimum octane of 87 (U.S.). Use of higher octane fuels is not harmful, but also
not necessary. The use of alcohol-extended fuels is acceptable ONLY if the alcohol content does not exceed 10% eth-
anol by volume; or 5% methanol with 5% cosolvents by volume. Refer to FUEL REQUIREMENTS on page 17.
What do I need to do before storing my Evinrude E-TEC outboard for the winter?
•
Winterization is minimal. Refer to STORAGE on page 38 for step-by-step instructions to store your Evinrude E-TEC
outboard for the off-season.
Where should I take my Evinrude E-TEC outboard for service?
•
For repairs covered under warranty, you must take your Evinrude E-TEC outboard to an authorized dealer. BRP-ap-
proved dealers and distributors have received the necessary training to properly service your outboard. Contact BRP
for an authorized Evinrude E-TEC dealer near you.
Can I order replacement parts and accessories for my Evinrude E-TEC outboard?
•
Yes. When replacement parts are required, use Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts or parts with equivalent character-
istics, including type, strength, and material. Using substandard parts could result in injury or product malfunction. Your
dealer can order the parts and accessories you desire.
Do I need to complete any paperwork when I move or sell my Evinrude E-TEC outboard?
•
Yes. In order to maintain contact with you or the new Evinrude E-TEC outboard owner, BRP requests you complete
the form outlining CHANGE OF ADDRESS / CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP on page 67. This will ensure you or the new
owner is made aware of any product announcements and keep the warranty coverage up-to-date.
