    1999 Yamaha 115 difficult to start

    My 115 is almost impossible to start. Runs great once it starts, but that takes forever. Lately, the only way to get it to crank and stay running is to press the button to disengage the shifter and set the handle at 3/4 throttle. It starts and revs up incredibly high. I pump the bulb up...

    Old 9.9 Mercury looking for year made. 0B390028

    Thanks guys! It is a 1989!, and as far as shifting goes, there are grooves and notches on the end of the tiller handle shaft for cables to connect to, but there are none there. Those can be ordered. The odd part is the side of the lower cowling has a groove cut out for the cables from a...

    90s Yamaha 85hp 2 stroke misfiring

    You mentioned timing marks on the control box. I don't know what you're describing. Timing marks are on the flywheel. Explain how you are checking the timing. If the timing is incorrect, this could very well be your problem and could cause serious problems is you have over-advanced timing...

    If you find a part number on a part that you know what it is, I'd search for that part number on the internet and it might tell you what year model it is. Just a thought. I do that sometimes when I shop for the part on the yamaha website and then shop for it online to see if I can buy it...

    87 suzuki DT175 black wet plugs, idles and dies

    If you're still using the Yamaha oil injection system, then it sounds like you are getting oil, but not gas. I had the same problem with my '99 115 Yamaha. If I could baby it enough to get it past idle speed, it ran great at wide open throttle. But keeping it running at idle and having to hit...

    Old 9.9 Mercury looking for year made. 0B390028

    I recently purchased an older 9.9 electric start 2 stroke Mercury outboard. It was taken off a pontoon boat that was used in the lakes of Kentucky. It was used with remote start, steer, shift/throttle controls, but I want to put it on a small boat and use it as a standard tiller motor. It has...

    1987 Yamaha 115 fuel delivery

    I'v struggled with possible carb problems for several years. Finally, I broke down and bought new carbs. Still have the same problems. Choke it and lift the fast idle and it fires up and revs high. Try to throttle down and it shuts off. I've tried everything. I recently had to replace a...
