Msg Subject: Rotax engines

I would like some opinions on the Rotax E-tec 155 hp engines, I'm getting ready to buy a small 20' Sea Doo Speedster and it comes with two of this engines. I have a few days before I go see this boat. regards Mario Lima

The only thing I've had any experience with was a small sea doo engine, but when  I changed it the only advice the company that re built the engine had was either removing the oil injection pump and pre mixing the fuel, or having the pump replaced. I guess that is the weak link  on most two cycle engines.

I know this doesn't realy answer your question, but I hope it helps some.

This is one of those new engines that are four stroke, you don't need to mix the oil with the fuel, thank god for that. Your answer was very good and I'm sure that if it was a two stroke I would definitely remove the automatic oil mixture tank. Thank You Mario
