    2003 Yamaha F25 Runaway Throttle on Start

    I would not think it should be a 27 while idling, only at WOT. but I know very little about those 4 stroke motors since I never owned one or worked on one. It just does not make sense to why it would be that advanced at idle

    Yamaha key switch mount horizontal

    grind the plat so the switch will fit in the position you want. you can always use some 5200 to hold it from turning

    2003 Yamaha F25 Runaway Throttle on Start

    I am confused about you setting the advance to 10 and 27. is this something on the timing light or the motor? My Snap-On timing light from back in the 70s does not have anything to set, just hook up and read what is shows on the motor.

    2003 Yamaha F25 Runaway Throttle on Start

    I am of no help, I do not see anything either in that manual on the timing. But I did notice at the end it is for a 1999 F25X Whatever that means. did you ever check to see if the throttle plates in carbs close all the way when you back off the throttle?

    2003 Yamaha F25 Runaway Throttle on Start

    My C40TLRX (2 stroke) has a linkage from the throttle linkage to a wiper on the CDI. this tells the CDI what position the throttle is in the CDI also has inputs telling the motor when the motor has warmed up or overheated. the CDI somehow changes the timing electronically using the inputs. I...

    2003 Yamaha F25 Runaway Throttle on Start

    I was talking about the timing when the spark plus fire. a timing light shows how many degrees before or after top dead center the plugs get spark. you are looking at the timing of the cam shaft and crank shaft. but you need to read your service manual to find the proper way to verify that...

    2003 Yamaha F25 Runaway Throttle on Start

    And over reving a motor without a load is a good way to screw things up

    2003 Yamaha F25 Runaway Throttle on Start

    throttle plates should be closed in neutral, does not mean they are. you have to check if they are closed like they should be or open for some odd reason. linkage came off, or stuck linkage throttle plates maybe. Not sure what controls the timing on that motor, but a timing light will tell...

    2003 Yamaha F25 Runaway Throttle on Start

    motor needs more fuel and air to rev up or timing has to be advanced. if the throttle plates are still closed off, I would be checking to see what the timing is doing with a timing light

    2023 Yamaha 9.9 high thrust compression reading

    with that much scoring in that cylinder wall might indicate oil coming up past the rings fouling that one plug. did the other cylinder wall and piston look OK?

    2023 Yamaha 9.9 high thrust compression reading

    Since I cannot find a parts diagram for a 2023 motor, I am guessing it is like the 2022 so it has carbs with a choke. I do not understand how a 4 stroke motor would be carboning up so bad from just gas and no automatic enrichment system to fail and be dumping extra fuel into the motor when not...

    2023 Yamaha 9.9 high thrust compression reading

    a complete model number would be good to post when asking about a motor. Being a 2023 I believe it has to be a 4 stroke motor. what does the oil look like, and the level? being new, was it broken in properly. some motors not broken in properly dilute the oil with fuel and cause it to over fill...

    Yamaha 130 hp v4 2 stroke

    how many wires do you have going into the motor? if just 2 disconnect from the relay and run some jumpers from a good battery to those wires to see if it runs , and then reverse the jumper wires to see if it goes that way too. bad brushes can be replaced, but rust and water inside is not...

    Yamaha 130 hp v4 2 stroke

    good chance the contacts in the relay are not making up good due to burnt contacts but jumper around the relay to see if the motor will turn before replacing the relay

    1997 Yamaha C90 Two Stroke Reverse Noise

    I believe that motor like most Yamahas I have played with are spring loaded into forward. you have to overcome the spring to get to neutral and reverse. put the controller into neutral, disconnect the cable at the motor make sure the motor lower unit and linkages are in the neutral position...

    2001 Suzuki DF140, won't crank, no spark

    just because the boat is a 2001 does not mean the motor is. find the motor ID info on the motor itself so you know what you are dealing with.
