unfortunately i recieved no reply from this forum but i was able to repair the oil injector. it turns out that the ficht oil injector is the exact same as a fuel injector.it is easily disasembled by removing it from the oil manifold by loosening the two bolts holding the oil injector to the manifold. you then put the metal plate that has two holes for a spanner wrench in your vice or you could use a spanner wrench if you have one . then lefty loosey unscrew the retainer plate and gently pull the inner out . you will then see the o rings just replace with new o rings the same size and re ***emble.i was able to repair the leaky injector and re***emble in 30 minutes. i was disgusted with the evinrude technicle help who wouldnt give me any info on the inner workings of a ficht injector they wanted me to spend 600 dollars instead of replacing a 25 cent o ring. i will never own another evinrude
