Congrats Matt and sorry Tuna he is back !!!!!!!

The new ETEC ran flawlessly Monday and we averaged 3.78 MPG for the whole day. The boat has canyon capabilities if I was on heroin and had a death wish. 11.9 hours on the engine Monday. So far after 2 runs I love the engine.

Congrats Matt. That's good economy. Good luck with it.

It will run even better after a hundred hours or so.

My fuel economy on my 200 etec went up 50% from my old evinrude 175. Now getting about 3.5

Are you using the XD100? IMO its better for the engine. keeps the powerhead squeaky clean never needing decarbing.

Good luck

keeperreaper 04-18-2012 09:31 AM

Yes I had them set it up for xd100. I like so far but its only been 12 hours or so.

Go to DOMO ONLINE for the best oil prices on the web.
Been using them for years, even with my older ficht.

Some day we are going to get 5-6 guys who use xd100 to agree and buy a 55 gal drum. Just need to save the empty jugs.
Save some $$$.

mofo domo online was down as of yesterday. apparently they changed warehouses or something. her explanation didnt make any sense but she said they would hopefully have evinrude oil up by the end of the week.

domo has the best prices by far.... and good service up until now. i've been using them the 5 years i've had the 'rude...

Domo is up now, at least for XD50, but price at Dusky was actually cheaper. Thanks for the heads up, i hadn't bought anything from Dusky in several years.
