    2003 Yamaha 50 hp 2 stroke

    have you put a timing light on the motor to see exactly what the idle timing is when cold and after the motor has warmed up? also when at high RPM. good compression, good spark at the correct time, and proper fuel to air. test what you can and then chase the fuel to air my 1999 C40 had a bad...

    Suzuki 2007 DF115 Cranks But Won't Fire

    30 hours in 17 years is not good for a motor. I am not sure what 100% gas is now a days. seems that motor has spent it's life sitting and not having much fresh fuel fed to it. good luck with it from now on, but you need to run it more often

    slight gas in oil 2009 yamaha 4 stroke

    only way to know if you have the motor propped right is to run it WOT to see what RPM it gets too. you do not have to keep running it hard tho

    15HP Yamaha overtemp light

    service manual for your motor will have the specs. I would think most motors would be the same, but I cannot say that is true

    15HP Yamaha overtemp light

    all I can think of is to do a chemical clean of the motor, good chance there is a buildup in the cooling passages. WOT burns more fuel and creates more heat. and it is not a good idea to keep running a motor that is overheated . the motor lets you know there is a problem, so you need to shut...

    slight gas in oil 2009 yamaha 4 stroke

    make sure the stats operate in spec., cold motor makes oil sometimes slow running, idling, or trolling tends to make oil too over propped does to I think. what RPM will it hit at WOT

    1994 Suzuki DT140 High Idle Issue

    spark to the spark plugs going to them before top dead center, instead of after top dead center while at idle. a timing light hooked to #1 spark plug will show what it is doing

    Suzuki DT85 Head Scratcher

    maybe you need to add a foil to you lower unit or transom wedges to eliminate the porpising. my used 16' aluminum Express came with a tail on the Yamaha C40TLRX motor. I removed it and had to get my brother to sit on the front of the boat to stop the porpising. I put the tail back on

    2005 Yamaha 4 stroke low idle when warm

    it probably would help if we knew what motor you are talking about but the idle air control valve would be something to check on

    Gears grinding after re- install drive

    Not that it will help you, but I did find my brothers C60 had a twisted shift shaft and a bent thru pin in the output shaft some years ago apparently from someone trying to shift it while the motor/shafts were not turning to help the dogs line up if the shifter and motor are in the neutral...

    Yamaha 90HP 1999 2 stroke not putting out water

    time to take it apart to see what is wrong and needs to be fixed before throwing it away, maybe just a head gasket or head, or plate in exhaust

    Yamaha 90HP 1999 2 stroke not putting out water

    blown head gasket, or corrosion hole in head or exhaust plate would be my guess
