Re: Should I upgrade from 94 115 Yam to 1998 115 Yam Saltwater Series? Both same hour
Hi all - very glad I did the swap now that the oil delivery problem form the remote tank has been sorted (all cleaned out).
Havent had it on the water but for a late 98 early 99 model it looks brand new...
Hi all,
Upgraded from my trusty 92/93 model 115 V4 Yammy with oil injection to a 1998/99 115 Yammy. The engine was professionally fitted using the original remote oil tank, gauges and control box and control wiring. Where my old motor would, on ignition on, cause the remote tank pump to...
Hi all. I have had a 94 for the last 6 years. Gem of a motor. Carbs gum up at times, but cleaned its back again in full swing. Its a pre-saltwater series motor. Its done 300 hours or so. Its trim and tilt will no longer stay up and it gently comes back to full in trim when left, but the...
Hi all - at lower revs 13 or so volts but on Plane she has started to put out 17 volts and fluctuates to 17.3v. Am I likely up for a new regulator/'rectifier? I have the clymer manual and it's not a lot of help. If it's the reg where is it on these and is the resistance test the manual talks of...
Hi all. My 93 performed really nicely today, but alas after tilting up for trailering going home she would not tilt back down onto the bracket stop...tried going back up, nothing. Noticed a little weeping oil from the seal at the top of the tilt tube. I tried using the manual bleed screw in the...
Hi all.
I do not use my boat these days like I should/used to. I have a 93 Yammy 115 V4 that I love and it has been a gem. I wonder though how long she will last, particularly doing a lot of sitting around (corrosion on the inside of the galleys). I start her every 4 weeks and run her up to...
Hi all. Perhaps a product of not enough use over several months..read no use over about 3 months I took out the old girl the other day. There was nothing - just starvation it seems between idle and pretty much flat out (or very close to it). As I opened the throttle from idle it felt like it was...
Hi all 93 Yamm V4. The choke solenoid is misbehaving. Used to work fine every time. I have sprayed it with Inox and it seems to glide nicely both using the manual choke lever on the engine, and when it decides to play ball using the button on the forward controls. It only works occasionally now...
Hi all - 93 115 with about 500 hours on her. I am going to replace the fuel pump diaphragm (thanks Rodbolt) but I was wondering whether the oil injection set up needs servicing. I assume that eventually the priming pump in the boat (at large oil container) would need replacing...but does it...
Hi all, carby outboards that are not used enough get fuel evaporating in the float bowls (unless drained or run dry) and varnish occurs and sediment gets into the idle circuits...what then of injected motors. Surely fuel sits in the injector rails and when that evaporates then shoots crap into...
Hi all - this is a problem that is now solved, but I thought I would post it up for people - might help someone. My old girl is a great motor that has never let me down. Recently though she would not rev over 1100rpm without choking up and stalling. Turned out to be the timing advance unit...
Hi all. I am looking at a bit more power on my 21 footer than my 115 Yammy. I like the reliability of my 93 motor with 200:1 at idle so its pretty good on oil - no pesky crank angle sensors, air flow meters etc etc. However if I have to go for another motor I am sorely tempted to a modern...

Hi fellas - 500 hour motor. Always been a great bit of kit. Just had a full service 3 months ago and have not run it since (warm climate - no ice etc) - new thermostats, impeller kit, seals, plugs etc. I took it out for the first time yesterday and it had a strong tell tale at idle and up to...
Hi all. I have a 93 Yammy 115 V4 2 stroke that hasnt ever missed a beat. One day though I might go for a power upgrade to 175 or 200. If I do I would consider a new tech motor - and I like the principle of the ETEC. My question though is whether they are really going to be a nightmare out of...
