There is no way I would have left a motor with someone who snickered knowingly. I believe the E-tec is too high tech for most mechanics, so they make fun if it. You should have someone who is first and foremost a thinkin' man work on it (Evinrude training and the latest software would also be nice). The Cat crew is the best Thinkin' man mechanic operation I know of, and I'm hopeful they are able to score some Evinrude software in the future (for when I need help with mine someday). But even without software, they can diagnose things the old fashion way using elimination and ingenuity.

Don't completely count out a fuel problem for that code 51. That same injector code on automobiles can be caused by an O2 sensor and fuel burn problems. Even with stabilizer, ethanol can absorb water and some stabilizers are alcohol based. The addition of alcohol based additives to a fuel that already contained alcohol could result in an improper burn situation. I imagine the code could also be caused from some other type sensors on the Evinrude motor. I hope you find a solutions soon, and I'm curious to what it is.
