    Determine counter engine

    Shift it into forward gear. Turn the drive shaft clock wise when looking down. If the propeller shaft turns clock wise when looking from behind it it a regular gear case. If the propeller shaft turns counter clock wise when looking from behind it is a counter rotating gear case. Alternately...

    Motor won’t start

    Won't crank and start or cranks and won't start? If the former then check the fuses on the motor. Not in the boat.

    Determine counter engine

    L200 is the model that would have come with a counter rotating gear case installed. Only difference between the two models. Keep in mind that whatever is on there is anyone's guess. Some folks convert a counter to a regular and a regular to a counter simply by swapping the gear case.

    1990 4 hp yamaha 2 stroke

    Well, you are somewhat, sort of, wrong. Small motors with integral fuel tanks don't need a primer bulb. Except for if and when a VST is emptied, EFI two strokes and four strokes don't really need a primer bulb. Some folks choose to not have a primer bulb installed because it is one more thing...

    Update Yamaha to NMEA

    You don't like the answer that Yamaha gave you. Yamaha USA I presume. All Yamaha USA can do is to tell you that motors prior to X should not have it and that motor Y, and subsequent to Y, should have it. Yamaha USA is not the motor maker. Yamaha Japan is the motor maker. Yamaha USA is just a...

    1988 Yamaha 2SG info needed

    Apparently there is no shift mechanism on that model. It starts, runs and stays in gear. Best be aiming forward when it starts. Reminds me of my dad's old Mercury tower of power. Crank it in forward and you are off. Crank it in reverse and you are off.

    Yamaha 115 V4 Salt Water Series Running very smokey

    Tank is overfilled. In which case it drains into the intake system. Also, the link attachment mechanism is known to get old and break. In which case the oil pump will default to the maximum oil setting.
