I just picked up a Sea Nymph with a 70hp Johnson two stroke. The previous owner disabled the VRO, so that means I'll have to pre-mix the oil (debatable on whether that's better or not than the VRO it came with, but anywho.)
The question I'm having is, the boat has the gas tank "built in" under the floor, and there's just a gas filler cap behind the outboard. What's the cleanest/easiest way to premix the gas and oil and fill it up? Fill it with gas at pump then put the oil in a small gas can with a nozzle and do it that way? Also, would it mix with the gas properly just doing it that way and not really being shaken up at all?
And yes, I realize this is probably a stupid quesiton :lol: First two stroke I'm dealing with since an old chain saw I had.
Thanks for any assistance!
