    Yamaha S130TXR8.1996 Identification.

    Yes, recirculation would be a better word. The manual I have refers to puddling. What are your thoughts on this. It is running without the hoses but I dont think the idle is as good as it should be.

    Yamaha S130TXR8.1996 Identification.

    99yam40 many thanks. Will take a look in the morning. what are your thoughts regarding the puddling hoses. Another thought crossed my mind. The oiling system being removed I wonder if the manifold connections were plugged. Will look at that also. Thanks again.

    Yamaha S130TXR8.1996 Identification.

    This motor recently purchased by a neighbor was supposedly rebuilt recently. I am not familiar with this model. I have a suspicion that the powerhead came from a different model. Is there an identification on the block similar to what we have on Johnyrudes. The oiling has been removed and the...

    J115PL4SR Fuel issue.

    This 2004 4Stroke motor appears in good condition. Will fire and run if fuel sprayed into intake. Fuel will shoot out of low pressure pump. Have replaced the low pressure filter. Can hear the high pressure pump but only a small amount of fuel comes out of it to the injectors. Not easy to get at...

    Merc 2003 25hp 2 stroke, sad 😢

    If you do need a rebuild don,t try machining Mercasil. Best to bore and sleeve or replace the block.

    60hp Mercury 2-stroke oil injection pump leakage

    If you intend using the pump to cap off the casing hole be sure to remove the drive shaft. If the shaft is left in driving a pump with no oil the pump will seize and the shaft and will tear the crank shaft drive gear to pieces and the bits rip up the cylinder. I found that my drive shaft would...

How much of the thread should be showing to ensure good lubrication. Does anyone know the...

    1977 25HP Evinrude cutting out.

    Having mulled the issue over I am going to remove the carb again and go through the cleaning one more time. I could have missed something although I have done dozens of carbs in my time. I will let you know the results. Thanks for your encouragement.

    1977 25HP Evinrude cutting out.

    I thought a lean sneeze as well so I tried opening the Idle jet screw a bit at time until I had got to about 2.5. Smoked a bit more and I got more reside in the barrel but it still went pflut after a while, just as I thought I had it, and it cut out again. I have the ignition advancing before...
