Hi all,
I hope some of you will be able to help with this stubborn problem I'm having with this YAmaha 30AE 1983 engine. It's an old engine, but it's in excellent condition for it's age having done most of it's work in fresh water.
The problem I'm having is boggin down. It doesn't seem to happen straight away. Yesterday after some work on the engine I decided to test it. I done a 15 minute run at 3/4 to full throttle without any problems. When I stopped running the engine it sat at idle great. When I went to take off again it bogged down.... I was getting a spurt of revs every now and managed to get full revs only once more & but couldn't get full revs at all.. The problem seemed to get worse as I limped my way back in.
I've done some work on the engine and though I had this problem solved...
So far I have fitted new plugs and impeller.
I have fitted a new carb kit, although to be honest the carb looks very clean. I recently cleaned the fuel pump with some carb cleaner and did notice some gunk while doing this. I though I had the problem solved until that run yesterday.
Any thoughts any of you guys have to help this stubborn problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin
