    Intermittent Overheat Alarm

    Yamaha 200 HPDI (2004). Been having an intermittent problem with overheat alarm on one of my engines. New water pump and t-stats but that did not fix the issue. After doing some research I expected it may by the poppet valve. So as a test, I started the engine and let it idle in the slip for...

    Yamaha 200 HPDI's - Can one engine alarm throttle the other engine

    Twin Yamaha 200 hpdi's. 2004. I have been having a problem with alarm on one engine. Not sure if oil or heat but I have changed the remote oil filter, remote oil pump, water pump and thermostats. Took the boat out to test it and it ran fine for the first half hour. Then I hit a wave and the...

    Engine Flush

    It seems as if I have a blockage somewhere in my cooling system. I installed a new water pump and it seems fine. Ran the boat for a while yesterday with no problems. Good flow of water being pumped out. However, when I try to flush the engine by attached a hose to the engine flush, no water...

    Yamaha Medium Pressure Fuel Clips

    Guys, Just a public service announcement. I got tired of paying $7 or $8 for these medium pressure fuel clips (which are used for the canister filter) each year. One and done with no reuse. So, I found an alternative (actually 2 years ago). I didn't want to post until I had a time to run with...

    North East Rain badly timed.

    I hope I am wrong about this, but this most recent rain could not have come at a worse time. How many of you all have recently fertilized your lawns? Well, with this torrential rain all of the nasty things it does to the water is going to follow. I think the bay (in my case Barnegat) is going to...

    Yamaha 200 HPDI external fuel pump?

    I have a 1989 Pursuit 2800 which was repowered with twin 2004 Yamaha 200 HPDI's prior to my purchase. I notice that the fuel line for each engine goes through what looks like an external pump mounted in the back of the bilge area on the inside of the transom . So I guess my questions are; Do...
