Hi All,
I've just bought standard size piston assembly 826191T4 listed on Ebay:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/192646948344
and it's 826191A4 (dated 1997) that has just turned up instead. My own research so far suggests that the most recent version of 90hp that 826191A4 fits is serial numbers BEL...
Hi All,
Bought this one real cheap as spare incl all the internals in pretty good condition. Is there a way to check if its geometry is still intact before undertaking any welding works? I can't see anything wrong with it in the pictures below but guess it's a fraction of a millimetre that may...
Hi All,
Assuming this inner needle bearing in my spare 90 ELPTO lower unit bearing carrier assembly needs replacing because of the rust:
https://s1.postimg.org/128nm9k3lb/2017-11-02_001.jpg
, how do I cross reference its part number 31-12578T to bearing makers' numbers? (e.g. Koyo, SKF, Timken...
Hi All,
The original lower unit that my 2000-01 Merc 90 ELPTO came with must be part number 1667-9011G57, let's call it old one. Looks like the same outboards dated 2003-04 onwards (0T627235/0P215669 and up) came with 1667-9011J15 that I just purchased as spare, let's call it new one. Detailed...
Hi All,
Just discovered that instead of a 883072T voltage rectifier/regulator for my 2-stroke 90ELPTO I had ordered a 883072T2 by mistake (several years ago), which seems to fit a range of 4-strokes:

While looking identically to 883072T it's...
Hi All,
I've just come across a collection of several threads elsewhere on various automix (oil injection) system failures in 2-strokes, made up by an owner of Yamaha 90 AETOL who decided to shut down the Autolube system in his outboard hoping to avoid any such risks. Some of the posts in those...
Hi All,
A couple of guys have just reported a severe issue occuring at just a few dozen hours with 2.1L 4-strokes and resulting in connecting rod breaking apart and damaging cylinder block, in particular with a 2016 Merc F115CT and a 2015 Merc F80 reported in Russia here (there appear to be a...
Hi All,
Is it a known issue where Yamaha F80-F100 series outboards get their cylinder #4's connecting rod broken, damaging the crankcase? If so where can I find tech bulletin and/or any other docs with further details incl the root cause? Been reading a thread about it on a different forum and...
Hi All,
Looking for a spare starter (#50-66015T1) and seeing 3-4 times price difference between OEM and aftermarket ones. Are the latter ones that much worse? Which aftermarket makes are the best and which ones should I stay away from?
Thanks in advance,
Dmitriy
Re: Teleflex throttle/shift cables: CC179xx vs CCX179xx
Here's the only one I could find with such view (the boat is far away from me now):
The bend will of course be sharper in the leftmost OB position.
Re: Teleflex throttle/shift cables: CC179xx vs CCX179xx
Texasmark:
Does this bend look too bad or it's acceptable? It should be the worst case bend as the OB seems to be fully turned left here.
Hi All,
Do Teleflex CCX179xx TFX TREME series throttle/shift cables justify their higher price compared to standard quality CC179xx series cables?
Thanks in advance,
Dmitriy
P.S. Afaik CCX179xx series is formerly known as C635 series.
Hi All,
Both of mine play at least 30 degrees (probably closer to 45) before engaging and I suspect it's too much. What are the recommended, typical and max values resp?
Many thanks in advance,
Dmitriy
Hi All,
Is it safe to cut off the end of Molded Hose #32-822554 removing the part circled red if necessary?
I suspect it's causing some gas leak. It's apparently there for compatibility with other outboard models.
Thanks in advance,
Dmitriy
Hi All,
My 90 ELPTO (2001) starts literally at half a turn when warm unless it had been kept at idle or very low rpms even for a few minutes before it stalled or was stopped manually (whichever occured sooner), in which cases it occasionally won't start for a random period of time (10min to...
