The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
I am considering the replacement of my Faria gauges with Teleflex. Will the wiring be the same and will the sending units for the Tach and water pressure and Speedo be compatible. The motor is a 1997 C150 Yamaha. The present Tach never has worked right (presently frozen). Faria has fixed it...
I would like the forum to weigh in on this mystery. My 1998 Yamaha 150hp 2 stroke outboard seems to have lost some power. This motor is carburated and the fuel is pre-mixed. I have discovered a loss of mph as measured by a GPS is down appx. 10 mph. The engine idles well and seems to perform well...

My Faria Tach. for my 1998 Yamaha 150 has a specified pole setting of 5, but the Tach will go to 7000 rpm. The engine sound is not in sync. with the tach. A mechanic told me to set it at 6 and the readings are more in line with engine sound, but the needle will sometimes do it's own thing...
My Yamaha is a 1997 that was new in 1998. The compresseion in all 6 cyl. is 120psi. I changed the plugs to what Yamaha recommended (bh7) and it ran terrible. It kind of lopped throught RPM and never seemed to reach wot rpm. I put the bh8 ones back and the problem cleared up. This plug is...
My 1998 Yamaha C150TXRW outboard engine came with the NGK B8HS-10 sparkplugs. I mistakenly purchased the NGK BR7HS-10 and I wonder if I can use them. What is the difference and is there a cross reference for the B8HS-10 with champion? I can return the unused plugs, but my dealer is about an...
I had a long thread some time back and it can be viewed by searching my name for those interested.<br /><br />I had the mechanic disconnect the VRO and just replace the fuel pump. I would go to premix. The gas tank is 20 gallons and it was 5/8 to 3/4 full. He added enough oil for 30 gallons...
Initial problem and untested so far was a loss of RPM at W.O.T. Motor is a 115 OMC on a jet boat.<br />Coils tested fine for OHMs. Replaced power pack. Rebuilt carbs with new floats and needle valves. Plugs are new. After putting together went for a water test and couldn't get the boat to...
