140HP Evinrude Looper

1986-1994

In 1986 OMC introduced the 120 and 140 hp loop charged outboards. They have stayed with this basic design, with some ignition and cosmetic changes, for 20 years. We have installed these outboards on boats from 15' to 25' feet. They have a lot of torque out of the hole and are very reliable. We found that the few failures with this class of outboards are due to fuel contamination or oil injection failure. As with all Evinrude outboards we build we have removed the oil injection. Fuel contamination can be prevented by installing a Racor fuel filter and checking it regularly.

Benefits: You can expect low gas consumption with this outboard. It is very light; weight (315 lbs) compared to the newer 4 and 2 stroke units. As with all OMC products you will have excellent parts and service availability, they are extremely popular.
