Re: yamaha carbs

when parts are listed as obsolete, I bring the part number to a marina and ask if they have it. most of the time, they will tell you that's it's been discontinued, but will tell you what part number has replaced it.

Re: yamaha carbs

Do you really need a whole new carb? These things are infinitely cleanable. Seldom do you even need a carb kit if you're careful with the gaskets.

I do have a 1985 115 hp with a bad lower unit. Both carbs have 0 hrs. since cleaned. I have not made up my mind to part the engine out or spend the money for a SES lower unit. PM me.
