why did you have the oil injection system disabled?



Have been having trouble with the control unit and the gauge. I got
to the point that I was tired of worrying about whether or not it was
going to work.

Just got the word from the shop that the motor is seized. I am
disheartened to the point that I may give up on boating all together.
I've had this boat since the first week of December, been in the water
twice and has been to the shop 4 times and now find out this. Very
frustrating.

I have a receipt from the guy that I bought the boat from that shows a
complete rebuild of the power head last summer. Receipt shows a 1 yr
warranty on parts contingent upon a working oil injection system.
Funny that it seized after running for 2 minutes after having it
disconnected.

Yes it had oil in the gas. I talked to the tech no make sure he mixed
the oil in the tank and ran it through the system before disabling.
He said he did....of course, what else would he say.


did you actually take a sample of the gas in the tank to check?
