    Question before I start tearing apart carburetors.

    Question before I start tearing apart carburetors.

    spark timing can be seen with a timing light. if the timing does not advance when the throttle is advanced the motor will not burn the fuel properly, so there is not the proper power. your service manual will have the specs, and it will also tell you how to check the cam timing

    Question before I start tearing apart carburetors.

    my troubleshooting starts with good compression on all cylinders, good spark to all plugs, proper timing of spark to plugs and on a 4 stroke proper cam timing if all is in spec then deal with fuel to air ratios. too little fuel to air(too lean) or too much (too rich)to each cylinder to burn...

    Retrofitting a trim sender (2021 Yamaha F25LC)

    if trimmed to high at speed the bow will bounce up and down or the motor will rev up as the prop loses bite. can you see your tell tail from where you sit? that tells you if the water pump is pumping water,

    Yamaha 20 fourstroke no power

    there are check valves in the fuel pump, but they just keep gas from flowing back out of the motor not to the motor. so yes fuel will flow out of the tank thru the pump if pressure builds up in the tank

    Why o' why?

    there should be a trap and drain line on the bottom of the oil tank that water would collect in ,if you want to drain just some oil out to see if any water was in the bottom

    drain the oil tank to make sure there is no water in there, but I do not see how over filled with oil would cause running issues
