Motor is a Yamaha year 2000 2-stroke C50tlry. I got the CDI troubleshooting page from CDI Electronics site to measure all the voltages I reference below.
So set out on a fishing day and idling out of the marina, boat died...dead in the water. Cranks but would not restart. Luckily was able...
I have a 2000 yamaha c50 that the brown starter solenoid trigger wire has gone bad on only the section from the 10-pin plug to the starter solenoid. I split the thick black insulation and it is mush all the way into the big black plastic plug. No clue how it kept starting as long as it has...
I have a little gear lube leaking from the prop shaft seal and am wondering if there are any pointers to replacing the seals when the bearing carrier does not appear to want to let loose easily. If I remove the two bolts in the photo attached, it should pull out and I can replace the seals then...
Curious what the head temp should be on my 2000 c50? I figured out my motor was going into safe mode this weekend but got no alarm cause the lower sensor with the pink and black wire was not actually in the head, it had come out at some point...
Anyhow, I checked the t-stat and it was decently...
I highly doubt this has anything to do with my power loss issues, but in digging around I found this sensor with one pink and one black wire dangling down beside the starboard edge of the cylinder head.
While you're looking at this if anyone wants to give a little input on my running issue...My...
I have had my tell tale clog up twice now with small shell fragments. The intake screen in the lower unit is in tact completely, however it still gets something lodged in the very end of the tell tale. On my old omc they replaced the little fitting that the tell tale hose hooked to with just a...
I have a c50tlry, two weeks ago had a great strong tell tale stream, last weekend had a weak one, that faded to barely a trickle when idling.
I dropped the lower unit and the impeller is in great shape, only a month old to begin with. The housing and cup look fine too. I put it back together...
So I currently have a perfectly good running 2000 C50TLRY 2-stroke with a 2003 powerhead (warranty replacement) that I bought from the original owner last year that used to be a yamaha dealer. I know the history of this motor and it has been great, runs great, regular maint items and a resealed...
This is an 1995 E90SLEOC on a 17' center console. Had the boat out last night for fireworks and when going through a long no wake zone I noticed the temp start to climb on the temp gauge, up to about 180 at idle. I know gauges aren't alway the most trustworthy things on a boat so I pulled the...
It was suggested that I possibly go up one temperature range in spark plug while I am breaking in my 60hp rebuild. Especially since it is a little cooler out right now? I have the L77jc4 champion plug in right now, but it seems to be loading up after idling for a little bit which I have to do...
Well, atleast I think it's a grounding/starter issue! Just had the motor rebuilt and have been out a few times so I was hoping it was just a cable that came loose from re-assembly, but does not appear it is so. The motor cranks over really slow. Batteries both fairly new and fully charged...
Here is a youtube link to a video I took of my motor idling and "sneezing"...as best I can describe it.

I know some of you have helped me with some other items along the way with this new to me motor, but here's another one!
So far new with the fuel delivery...
I have an '88 60hp with the vro bypassed that was experiencing a slight pulse type bog at wot every once in a while, but would cruise/idle just fine. However this past weekend it ran fine until heading in at the end of the day and all of a sudden it would barely even idle. The bulb was softer...
Anyone have an idea of the weight of my motor? I'm looking at repowering and want to know what my options are for weight. I wouldn't want to go any heavier because my boat sits very level and shallow when polling the flats and I'd like to keep it that way. Thanks in advance!
So I can not get my 1988 E60tlccr to run more that a couple minutes above about 4k rpms before it just quits, very abrupt. But then starts right back up... It will run at 2-3k rpms no problem, but above there and it dies. I don't want to hurt the thing so I keep trying things in the fuel...
