    Starter fluid everytime....

    The lubrication would all be there from the day, week, month before. Might be better for a motor to get up and running quickly than for it to have to be cranked and cranked.

    Being mostly highly volatile liquids I would have guessed starting fluid would be all vapor by the time it got through the carburetor.

    Engine oil alarm, not priming

    You need to know what is causing the alarm. Not just think. Guess really. If you powered the remote tank pump motor directly (and correctly) and it ran, but it would not pump oil, then the pump is inoperative. However, with the key on and the toggle switch pressed, the pump should also have...

    A cold motor needs a bit of extra gasoline to help get it going. Which is what a choke does. What you are doing with starting fluid. As asked, is your choke system functioning?

    How to fill a totally empty tilt/trim system 1998 Yamaha 115

    Fill the reservoir as best you can. Put the cap on. Run the motor down and then back up. You might need to give it a helping hand. When it is back up remove the cap. Add fluid if needed. Repeat until such time as the reservoir is full and will take no more fluid.

    2006 Yamaha 250 VMAX SHO

    Keep running that motor when the alarm is trying to tell you to turn it off is a terrible idea. Hopefully, you have not damaged the motor. You cannot bypass the main motor mounted oil tank on a VMAX HPDI model if this is what you have. Well you can but it won't last long. Is the model of the...

    Many have had that problem. I would take the unit to a good machine shop and have them extract the broken bolt.
