    Engine flushing 150 yamaha

    just to let you know a muffler is something on a motor to quiet the exhaust out of a motor. muffs are for flushing an outboard that you attach to a lower unit on the water intake area. maybe Brits and Canada people call them mufflers for some reason. I am not sure if you are running the motor...

    Yamaha problem

    Question about LU rebuild + getting ripped off on sale.

    what did you get for $20? I do not think you replaced all the seals and o rings for $20. Did you pressure check the lower to see where the leak was, and pressure check it after the repair to see it it is fixed?

    Replacing water pump seals 50HP TLRB

    have a look at #30 prices, $23.49 gets it all the housing by itself is $35, seals 6.75 each and Oring $5.40 I thought that was a miss print when I 1st ran into this on mine and you do not have to figure out how deep to seat the seals

    Replacing water pump seals 50HP TLRB

    #2 / #5 Cylinders Not Firing

    yes the oil level switch in the main tank has more than one set of contacts, that send signals to the oil control module. looking at wiring does not mean it is good, need to be testing it your service manual has a lot of information in it. good to have if you are going to work on it yourself
