87 xp150 vro

[VROED87]

Hey I have an 87 evinrude xp150 (E150stlcur) with a leaking vro pump. When I pump the bulb up it will come out the back side of the vro pump.i guess this is the oil side since the oil line runs to this part, anyway does any one know if a gasket kit for the pump is available and if not will i need to buy a new pump or can i delete the vro. thanks

they used to offer a repair kit for the fuel side of the pump. not the oil side. so either replace it or it can be byp***ed and u have to mix oil in tank at a 50: to one ratio. as expensive as the good oil is now, it is better to replace vro pump and not risk a chance of forgetting to add oil to gas.
