I have a 1995 Yamaha 2 stroke with a Yamaha multi function tach that i installed 3 years ago. It has worked perfectly for 355 hrs. Today i wanted to get the hrs off it and when I turned the key on it wouldn't come on. I didn't remember turning the batt power off so I hit the tilt switch and the...
I have a Yamaha 85hp outboard and I hooked up a Yamaha multi function tach that works great but I need to know which wire is for the internal Light. I would like to hook it up to my Nav light switch.
Someone told me I was sol because the multi function tach would'nt work with the 85 but they...
Hey Guys, What temperature should a 1995 85hp Yamaha run at at cruise speed? After running at cruise, I could take the cover off and put my hand on the cylinder head and keep it there. Seems it should be running hotter than that. I have a little gadget that I can point at it and push a button...
My mechanic said I should always run it out of gas when done for the day. I use the boat almost every weekend during the summer. He said the gas will evaporate from the carbs in a few days and leave the oil and that could be causing a carbon build up. I've also heard one cyl could run lean when...
My 1995 Yamaha 85 runs rich at idle up to 1300 rpm and runs great after that up to WOT of 4500 rpm. It will foul plugs after 25hours or so.I do troll a lot but at 1700 rpm. I don't spend much time near idle.
1. had the carbs adjusted and timing checked. They also did a de-carb. The compression...
After about 25 hours on a set a plugs they will foul while trolling. I fish off shore here and do a lot of trolling at 1800 Rpm. should this engine be able to troll all day without this happening? I just got it back from the shop and they said it checks out other than doing a de-carb. I'll have...
I have a 1995 Yamaha 85 two stroke on a 17 foot glasspar that weighs about 850lbs with no motor on it. It has a 13.25 x 17 prop. I just installed a tach and was surprised to find out it only turns 4000 rpm at WOT. Is it possible the tach isn't correct. What rpm would one think it would turn with...
I just mounted my 1995 Yamaha 85 and was wondering what gauge batt cable Yamaha recommends. The rubber block at the front isn't that large so the cable can't be that large.
I'm almost ready to mount my C85. I've heard they make a template for the bolt pattern. Where do I get one? Do people just hang there motor by a hoist and just hold the motor and drill. It seems that not a very accurate way to do it. I've never hung a motor. Please help.
I'm almost ready to mount my motor and was told the best way to mount it was to use a template for the bolt pattern so when I drill the transom the holes are perfect. Where can I get one?

I would like a Yamaha multi function tach with hour meter and over temp. Can anyone tell me which one I need?
I've been looking to buy a Yamaha 90 two stroke but found a clean 85 and wondering what the difference is. This 85 doesn't have oil injection and was wondering if that's the only difference. He thought the lower unit might be different. Does anyone know? He called it a commerical 85.
Thank You
I'm looking to purchase a Yamaha 90. This guy works out of his Garage and seems to know what he's talking about. He replaced the bottom piston with new and the other pistons were fine so he left them alone. The top cylinder was a stock bore with the middle cly being bored 020' over and the...
I'm going to look at one today. What's the history on these motor's? Have they been good motors or do they have any history of being trouble? What does Oceanrunner mean? Do they have more corrision protection? Does anyone know what it weighs? Where can I look to get info on it? It has 120hrs...
