Hi all..New to this site,and a new owner of an old deck boat. The boat is a 1991 Hurricane FD226,with a Yamaha YEMS 4.3 V-6,Yamaha stern drive. It was given to me by a friend who's dad bought it new in'91,put 34 hours on it over the years and then it sat the past ten years. All fluids looked new,but I am replacing all fluids in motor and outdrive, new fuel line from tank,new fuel filters,etc. I'm pretty sure I should rebuild carb also. Have not run motor yet, should I replace the sea water impeller and is there an impeller in the out drive as well? This is my first I/O boat and I know little about stern drives. Also,the boat was stored with the stern drive in the full-up position and I hear this can cause problems?..Any thoughts and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
