Yamaha o/b pitot tube

[flybuddy]

Got a new 115 Yamaha. the pitot hole for the speedometer is quite small and ALWAYS gets clogged making the speedometer fairly worthless. Came across a product called speedoclear which connects in the tubing and pumps pressure out the pitot any time you push a button. Is anyone familiar with this product and does it work? thx. they've got a site at www.speedoclear.com

Re: Yamaha o/b pitot tube

FYI, I purchased and installed. It does work however The speedo is now reading 10 mph low in comparison to the GPS. It use to read about 3 to 5 mph high. I'll check the line but I believe it's the 90 degree bend through the speedoclear that's causing it.
