    2020 Yamaha 90 buzzing

    I would have tried to charge and test the old battery. but measuring the battery voltage before and while trying to start it may help point to a problem also measuring the voltages at the starter and starter relay may point to a problem with a cable, connection, or battery switch if you have one

    2006 Yamaha F115 fuel leaks from VST

    easiest way to find where it is coming from is to remove the cowling, clean everything up and let it dry. have someone turn the key on and watch for any leaks. if no leaks seen, have them fire it up while on muffs while you look for leaks. fire extinguisher may be good to have handy just...

    Yamaha 130 has random miss at idle

    well if you have good compression ,spark at correct time, and the carbs work well on the other motor, only thing I can think of is bad seal between crankcases on the crankshaft. I believe 2 and 3 are next to each other on the crank

    if the wires in the harness were to short across 2 & 3 or be crossed somehow, you would see it with the timing light lighting up the wrong TDC area if you paid attention

    Yamaha corroded ground wire.

    I would not like to have a steel connector on a saltwater motor/boat, but even the lead to copper connections go bad sometimes also. I have seen cables go bad in the middle of the cable too

    Yamaha corroded ground wire.

    bad connection heats up that connection and caused it to burn and get brittle. if you check and clean/lube the battery connections like you should this would not happen

    Yamaha 130 has random miss at idle

    if this motor runs the same on 2 cylinders and 4 cylinders, it is not just a random miss "I can unplug both #2 and #3 plug wires and motor does not change in the way it runs. One video attached shows just the miss, the other shows motor running with 2 plug wire removed with no change" did you...

    Yamaha 130 has random miss at idle

    a timing light hooked to a plug wire while this happens will show if spark is a problem on that plug. or you can keep throwing parts at it to see if you can get it to stop doing what it is doing you need to know if you have a spark problem or not

    yamaha 4 stroke 9.9 bogging

    Yamaha 130 has random miss at idle

    for a cylinder to fire and burn properly you need good compression, good spark at the correct time, and the proper fuel to air ratio. use a timing light to verify spark for each cylinder it hitting when it should. if they all are then you are left with too much fuel or not enough fuel in some...

    No voltage from just replaced coil - FT9.9GE

    can you show what DVA adapter design you followed? I have heard of some using 2 resisters before that did not work as well. seems when you changed the connectors is when the no start happened maybe?

    Value of Yamaha 25 hp outboard?

    list the rig higher than you are willing to take for it so you can come down some to make the buyer happy he talked you down some. listing them separate means you have to find someone with a boat that needs a motor. you will find more people wanting a complete rig
