i have 1996 yamaha saltwater series II (S225TXRU). I was riding down the river at 4200 RPM and it threw a rod! Does anyone have or know where to go to get a good cheap block i also need a rod and three pistons. any help will be appreciated.
If it has Yamaha written on it, it cannot have cheap in the same sentence with it.
You may want to think about a rebuilt power head and then you still need to find out why yours came apart before you do it again to the new one
the overheat alarm has gone off once or twice the last few times i brought it out when i was idling and it would just stop pissin. I would put it in neutral and rev it slightly and the alarm would go off. is it poss that the piston pin just broke. Because when it blew i looked back and it was pissin good. when i pulled the cap off it wasn't hot at all. or is it possible that the few times it was overheated is the reason it blew???
