    Suzuki DF115 transom (Trim/Tilt) saver??

    It says, if you can, trailer it vertically; and, if not, use a transom saver.

    Suzuki DF115 transom (Trim/Tilt) saver??

    Just got a new 2022 Suzuki DF115. Previously had a Yamaha F115 and used the MyWedge to take the load off the trim/tilt system while trailering. Suzuki DF115 has a single ram trim/tilt system. MyWedge makes a single ram version as well. I was wondering what other Suzuki or really another other...

    2006 F115 low speed stumble or bog

    Recently had a bog on takeoff. I'd experience a bog or stumble. Maybe 7 or 8 times and then it would clear up. Suspected fuel delivery issue. It had been a while so I reworked the fuel system. Pulled the injectors and sent them off to be cleaned and flow tested. Replaced all the fuel lines...

    2006 F115 low (no) voltage after running a while

    2006 f115 (68v-L-1055558). Been laying up on charger for 8 months during duck season. Did annual maintenance and drained fuel tank. On first trip out all seemed fine while running. After running about 20 minutes noticed alternator voltage was at 11.8V (normally 14.x V at high rpm's). Switched...

    2006 F115- Yamaha tach jumping around

    I have a yamaha digital tach hooked to the engine. It will jump around in values while running. I also have a NMEA 2000 network attached to the engine as well as a NMEA 2000 compatible gauge and the RPM reading from that gauge reads steady numbers while the yam digital tach is jumping around. I...

    2006 F115 - new LP fuel pump needed???

    I have been experiencing occassional stalling/hesitation on takeoff and occassional surging at higher rpm under load. I pulled the low pressure fuel pump. The manual said to perform 3 tests. 1) Apply 7.1 psi to pump intake; I applied 10 psi and it held 10 psi for a minute. 2) Apply 4.3 psi...

    2006 F115 Stalls (stumbles) on takeoff; surges on plane sometimes

    2006 F115 occasionally stalls or stumbles on takeoff and occassionally surges while running. Backing off the throttle seems to clear it up and/or pumping primer bulb. It does not happen on any regular basis. I believe it is a gas starvation issue. I have been running a 2 micron Racor...

    For a 2006 F115, is there a fuel filter between the VST and the low pressure fuel pump? If so, what is the part number and how often should it be changed and checked? Thanks in advance.

    2006 F115 water pump rebuild needed ???

    I changed the water pump at 100 hours (12/2008) as a precautionary measure. No issues since and still have very good water pressure by a gauge. How often years and/or hours should the water pump be changed as part of regular maintenance? I now have 350 hours on the engine so it has been 250...

    Cleaning TPS for 2006 F115???

    Can the throttle position sensor (tps) be taken off and cleaned with contact cleaner without having to perform any re-adjustments to the throttle and linkage? I may start doing this as a regular maintrenance item if it can be easily done.

    oil pressure gauge for 2006 F115

    Can I install a regular teleflex oil pressure gauge (0-80 psi) utilizing the existing oil pressure switch on the engine as the sending unit? I believe, I would just have to install another wire running from the oil pressure switch to the gauge. My Yamaha gauges are old and do not include the...

    Buy or Make a Leak Down Tester?????

    Would like to start doing leak down tests on my engine on a regular basis. Harbor Freight sells one (http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=94190) for $39 but I read it is junk. Is there a decent leak down tester available for < $100 and from where? Also, read a post...

    '06 F115 losing oil-burning oil???

    On a recent fishign trip, upon full throttle from dead still, the motor went into limp mode( ran rough, rpm reduction, and warning buzzer). When rpms reached 1500, the buzzer stopped. Upon taking off slow, no symptoms appeared. Though it was bad gas but after getting home checked the oil...

    '06 F115 leak down test and finding TDC

    Would like to learn how to do a leak down test on my engine. Harbor freight as a leak down tester http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=94190 that would probably suffice but I am not a mechanic and have no idea how to find TDC for the cylinders. Any instructions or...

    '06 F115 runs rough; rpm's drop; warning buzzer

    From a standstill, if I give it a lot of throttle the rpm's start climbimg but eventually the engine runs rough, drops rpm's, and the warning buzzer sounds. The buzzer shuts off at 1500 rpm. Plenty of water pressure and engine temp is fine around 123F so it should not be the temp sensor.The...

    VST filter change frequency ???

    2006 Yamaha F115. I have a racor 10 micron fuel/water separator installed and change it and the low pressure fuel pump filter regularily (every 100 hours or 1 year). Should the high pressure fuel pump filter in the VST be changed at regular intervals? If so how often? Only if problems...

    Yamaha 4stroke - idle speed control ????

    Just trying to figure out how the ISC assembly works for future reference. From my manual, I see it has a hose to the intake silencer, a hose to each throttle body, and a vacuum hose with filter to the intake manifold. I assume the valve itself opens and closes as needed and allows air flow...

    2006 F115 - vibration @ low rpm only

    I get a vibration above idle at very low rpm. It is not present at idle in neutral or above low rpm. I can feel it in the steering wheel and console. Above a certain low rpm (HAVEN'T NOTICED EXACTLY) and anywhere above or at idle the engine runs better than great. Any help is appreciated.

    2006 Yamaha F115- metal rattling noise

    When running I hear what sounds like metal rattling. It changes with speed. I am guessing a loose cover of some sort. Any ideas?
