    Did the 77 9.9's have a tell tale, CDI, reed spacers and round exhaust yet ?

    NO Do not stick a clothes hanger up there to try to open it. Will do more damage than good. If you want to replace it pull the powerhead and replace it. That's interesting I always thought the tuners and spacers showed up later.

    Have you ever done that? I don't think I would be so quick to jump on that band wagon If I was you. STOP acting like the YAMAHA forum is your personal playground!!!!!

    2001 Johnson 70hp - rebuildable?

    The WSM kit is excellent. Look at the top of the pistons for part #s or if they are oversized already.

    2003 lx225 OX66 knocking sound

    Run the piston to just beyond TDC on the down stroke. Take a pencil and push on the piston, if you hear a clunk take the motor apart.

    100hp mariner starts but doesn’t keep running

    Get a factory manual , it is a must for your motor. That motor is a 2+2 motor and starts and idle on the top 2 cylinders.

    cant find out the year of 90hp yamaha

    To the OP the "experts" should have asked for pics of the hood and powerhead. Especially the cdi box. That motor was relatively unchanged through out it's run. So pics are a must

    Short to Long Shaft swap on a 1995 20HP

    Buy a different motor or try to find a blown donor motor and swap powerheads. If you get lucky find a 25 hp and swap carbs onto yours.
