I posted earlier about my 93 yam 70tlrr. <br /><br />Arco trim motor ($195) and yamaha service manual ($75!! shipped) arrive tomorrow. ordered 3 carb kits and water pump repair kit ($95) from boats.net (are they REALLY oem parts?) Kits probably here next week. <br /><br />So, this weekend, the trim motor goes on, carbs come off, and I am crossing my fingers.<br /><br />I know that once I get my eager paws on that manual, that I (hopefully) will have more instruction than I know what to do with. But in the meantime, any pointers? I had the motor running, but fuel was pouring out of all 3 carbs from a hole in the top that I assume is a vent of some sort. No biggie I'm sure, but I wonder...<br /><br />I have been reading post for 70 Yam, and Yam carb rebuilds ALL WEEK. This site is priceless. What I wouldnt give to have someone like rodbolt or any of you other guru's watching over me this weekend. I am going from a 12 foot zodiac w/ a 15hp merc (learned a lot there) to a scout 152 console. Hey I'm a 28 year old single social worker I do what I can. So anyhow, oil injection has been capped off, I'm sure I need to test it. Carb clean/kit, new trim motor, h20 pump rebuid--all these are a given. Should I spring for a fuel pump? New lines? Any ignition parts/coils/plug wires etc? I would be greatly appreciative of any other "Get her tuned and safe and maintained" sort of advice.<br /><br />thanks, chris
