Re: trying to find repair manual for my boat
If you go to Ebay. Type in 'yamaha stern drive' for your search. Up will come all the yamaha stern drive stuff for sale. Amongst them, there will be the Clymer manual foryour engine and drive. Thats the book you need. I have the exact set-up, and i have had to take the drive apart a couple times. The book is a very useful tool.
By the way, I know most on here tell you to run if you say you have the yamaha drive, but I love it. I do all the maintenance myself. Just take care of it and you should be okay. It is true, a lot of parts are NLA, but most maintenance items are readily available still at you Yamaha dealer. Usually you gotta wait a couple days, but they can get it!!
