Hi I recently pulled my yamaha 9.9 4 stroke extra long leg high thrust completely down. Mainly just to check it. I did put in a stainless pivot shaft to eliminate lock down lever sticking. Now it keeps going to run on one. It might run on two for a while.
There are two things that are confusing me.
1) The crankshaft has about 10 degree play. In other words I can rotate it back and forth that much with no resistance. The fly wheel is tight. How can that be?
2) I have check all the species for the electrical, side new pugs etc. All ok except my multi meter shows .9 ohms across the input (orange and black) on the coil. The manual says it should be between .26 and .35 ohms.
PS Stripped carby and that seems fine.
