Looking at purchasing a boat with a 2000 Yamaha Ox66 150hp. The previous owner states that the impeller for the water pump hasn't been changed for 3 years and that the o2 sensor hasn't been cleaned in two.<br /><br />While I know that if I purchase the boat, I will have to go for a new impeller, t-stats, VST filter, and possibly clean (if not a new) o2 sensor at this point. <br /><br />The question is, if I complete all of the required maintenance, will his previous inattention to detail be a problem for me?<br /><br />By the way Rodbolt, I saw in an earlier post your were an FC in the Navy. What system did you work on?
<br /> no worries, just be aware when you get it its time for VST filter,O2 sensor and pressure valve,t-stats and waterpump maint. plus the remote oil filter and any other maint that has not been done including the engine tank sensor maint.<br /> none is hard, some require a speacail tool or two,none that are expensive. depends on how much you wish to learn, how much you wish to do and how much time ya got.
