Evinrude Vro Owners Manual
May 11, 2010 Re: Evinrude VRO 40 HP starting procedure You don't need an owners manual. The lever on top of the control box is a fast idle lever. Obviously you can't fast idle the engine for warm up with the regular throttle/shift lever because it would be in gear. I need the 1973-1990 Johnson-Evinrude 2hp to 40hp Repair Manual. How can it be available for dowload? I ask you please to mak it availabel, because I. Search by model number, brand, year and horsepower to find the service manual/operators guide that fits your exact Evinrude or Johnson outboard motor.
Re: Evinrude VRO 40 HP starting procedure You don't need an owners manual. The lever on top of the control box is a fast idle lever. Obviously you can't fast idle the engine for warm up with the regular throttle/shift lever because it would be in gear. Here's the starting procedure: COLD START: 1) Squeeze the primer bulb in the fuel line until firm. 2) With the throttle/shift lever in neutral, raise the fast idle lever about 1/3 of its travel. 3) Turn the key to RUN (not start). 4) Push in on the key to activate the primer solenoid and hold it for a count of 8 - 10.
5) Turn the key to START. 6) When the engine fires let it fast idle for a bit then lower the fast idle lever a bit. 7) The engine may want to die so be prepared to push in the key momentarily to give it another shot of gas. You may need to do this a couple of times so be ready. 8) Lower the fast idle lever.

9) Go boating. HOT START: 1) Raise the fast idle slightly. 2) Turn the key to START.
3) Lower the fast idle lever and go boating. 4) In some situations a little bump of the key to give the engine a little gas may be necessary. It all depends on how long the engine had been shut off.
