VROD2C – Fuel Pump VRO Delete Kit – Johnson/Evinrude

The VROD2C fuel pump kit is a complete replacement solution for Johnson and Evinrude outboards originally equipped with a VRO (Variable Ratio Oil) fuel/oil injection pump. This kit lets you remove the complex VRO pump and convert your engine to run on a dedicated diaphragm fuel pump that works with premixed fuel. Many owners choose this route when the original VRO system fails or becomes too expensive to repair.

VRO systems combine fuel and two-stroke oil in one unit. This design injects both liquids to support engine lubrication and combustion. However, the combined pump can wear or leak with age, and OEM replacements often cost hundreds of dollars. In contrast, the VROD2C fuel pump kit gives you a simple, reliable alternative that focuses on delivering fuel only.

This kit includes a compact diaphragm fuel pump mounted on a bracket, plus marine-rated hoses and fittings tailored to fit common VRO engines. It works especially well on two-cylinder and some V4 configurations, so you can route fuel lines cleanly after removing the old pump. By switching to a dedicated fuel pump, you also simplify maintenance and avoid future VRO-related issues.

Installing the VROD2C fuel pump kit improves fuel delivery and reduces the number of moving parts under the cowling. Note that with this conversion, you must mix oil into the fuel tank at the correct ratio for your engine, replacing the automatic oil metering once done by the VRO system. Overall, many boat owners find this conversion more dependable over the long term.
