FUEL AND OIL PRIMING
OIL REQUIREMENTS
Powerhead oil programming labels are provided
to identify EMM oil programming. Install the cor-
rect label to alert user to specific oil requirements.
An XD100 Outboard Oil Decal, P/N 352369, is
available to label boats equipped with outboards
that have been programmed for the reduced oil
injection ratio.
Install decals in a highly visible location, such as
one of the following:
• Dashboard/deck of boat, next to key switch
• Deck of boat, next to the remote oil fill
• Deck of boat, next to oil tank assembly
• Oil tank cover
• Cover of oil tank compartment
• Attach to oil tank or oil fill cap.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the engine label and
boat decals match EMM programming.
Break-In Oiling
IMPORTANT: DO NOT add oil in the fuel tank
on Evinrude E-TEC models.
The Engine Management Module (EMM) will auto-
matically supply extra oil to the engine as follows:
• 90° V6: First two hours above 2000 RPM
• 60° V4 & V6: First five hours above 2000 RPM
• 40 – 90 HP: First two hours above 2000 RPM
• 15 – 30 HP: First two hours above 2000 RPM
Follow these steps for outboard set-up:
• Use Evinrude Diagnostics software to make
sure the break-in program has been started.
• The oil tank should be filled and the oil level
marked for reference.
The operator must monitor the oil
tank level to confirm oil consumption. This
may require several hours of operation above
idle.
