You all probably dont care but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb lost my password. I love any tips you can give me
@Mekhi Joaquin instablaster ;)
@Andrew Leonidas Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out now.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Andrew Leonidas It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
@Mekhi Joaquin You are welcome :)
I wouldn't call myself a professional outboard mechanic but I work on my own stuff. You sir have one of the best outboard ch on RUclips. I've learned a lot. Knowledge is power. Thanks for the power brother
Dealing with a "salt life" outboard now. Wish prior owner followed these tips.
My 1st comment was before I watched the entire video... So now;
Once again, you have provided an encyclopedic amount of useful information information in just nine minutes... Thank you!
Awesome :) Thank you! Thank YOU for all of your support!
I've definitely gone to only burning Rec 90, I feel better about cleaning up my engine now. I try to slow shift but in a tight spot sometimes you just have to shift faster that you should? I run my boat all year long but she does sit a bit more in the winter. I stabilize the fuel left in the tank and try to top off the tank before it sits to reduce the surface area open to oxidation and vaporization. Just ran her in a parade on the lake last night in Georgia! Time for plugs and wires....
Love Technician Tuesday's. Best email I got this week.
Great tips for outboards, and I also watched the outboard cleaning video. Great info.
There is so much too know. I'm in my early 60's and bought my first boat last summer. Certainly wish I lived near you guys instead of the center of Kansas. You are a wealth of knowledge. And I thank you for sharing.
Our pleasure!
Fyi no amount of flushing the early 2000 225 4 stroke Yammys would prevent the corrosion in the exhaust manifold as fresh water does not flow in that manifold. This was a defect in the Yamaha metallurgy at the time. If not caught early enough this would ruin the midsection to block interface.
Great video once again.. I fish in freezing weather up here in the north and it sometimes gets tough to clean off all the salt.. I do my best when I get home. I only stop running my boat for 3 months Jan,Feb,and March.. I change my oil every 50hrs and it's black. Gear oil every 100. I think it's better to change oil in spring because moisture can build in oil over the winter months. Theres so many people who winterize in the fall and do oils at the same time.. who knows.. anyway love you're videos and thank you for the time you take to make them.
Awesome! Thank you for your support. You know that's something to think about with the condensation and water building :) it's crazy the different things that you can see from different locations!
Glad your back ,I'm loving Tuesdays again.great video ,great advice.#yamaha
Welcome back. Excellent video. Saludos y que bueno tener los martes de VIDEOS de vuelta. Felicidades #Yamaha
We use aircraft fuel and it has a shelf life of 2 years faa spec
100LL AVIATION FUEL has 2 oz. of Tetraethel lead per 10 gallons. Not a good fuel for an outboard.
My brother sent me these videos from your channel to keep our #Yamaha motor work better and longer :) Thank you guys!
Great video. Great info I'll be using. Thanks
Glad your back!!
Well done, glad I found you!
My previous boat was a 2001 Angler 2400 with two #Yamaha Saltwater Series II stroke engines.
Thats nice! Thanks for this video!
Slow shifting grinds the clutch dog and show you a hollow gear case and a prop shaft from a mercury gear case but no clutch dog
This is why I believe in merc outboards! 4K that’s insane! Great video!!
Th ask for all the content on boat. For new owners like myself it helps out tremendously
Yamalube ring free question. I have a 1996 Yamaha 225 2 stroke and was wondering if I should add Yamalube ring free every time I fill up at the Marina or every so often? Love your videos, very informative!
Changing the lowers so the props turn in will create lift on certain boats and set up's not all set up will benefit from this and will lose mph and burn more fuel it's a trial type of thing
Great video as always I am showing this to my brother in law . We both have Yamahas on are boat and he wonders why he has more problems then I do. # Yamaha
#Yamaha Born Again Tuesday was much needed. We are currently repainting our 11’ F150 Cowling.
Nice!
Great video 👍 Thanks for the effort 😊
Awesome video as always!
Going down to Yamaha school in January always a good time down their. We have started to see the mid section problem on 3.3 250’s. 2008 being the newest one that we have seen rot out to date .
Awesome! Yes, it is nice up there! Really, that's pretty uncommon to see on that late of a model, and a 250 at that! It happens though lol its sad when it goes so far and eats through the powerhead from the cooling passage to the oil passage :*(
Born Again Boating yea definitely. We have had power heads welded with great success saving the customer big bucks but it does require removing the heads and electronics so it can be surfaced. But still comes in way lower then a new power head.
Hey! Welcome back!
Wish I had know some of this before my L-drive went away. . . Now I need a Yamaha!
Ha he said L DRIVE ! USE THE FORCE !!
Getting on step, trimmed out ,full speed and smashing waves will also make you smile 😎
Agreed
Valuable info. Thanks
Great video thanks!
Hey hey
Don't know if you mention this
Don't leawe enigen Up let IT down so water can't gather in the screw hous
And corode
Thank you for your detailed explanations in your videos! I recently replaced our '05 mercury Optimax 150's on our family boat with mercury twin 2019 150 four-strokes. It's a much better experience. The DFI oil was killing us. The oil is about $45/gallon retail - $33 or so a gallon online if you catch a sale. Our boat used to hold about 5 gallons of 2 stroke oil. I have always loved 2 strokes, but for running offshore the mercury 150 four strokes work better for us. We were burning close to 4 gallons on a typical canyon trip out of Indian River, DE with the Optimax's. I have followed the 150 four stroke since 2011. But, your videos helped my family decide that the 150 four strokes were the way to go for us. The maintenance is super easy too! Thank You!

Awesome! Congrats on the repower! Thank you for your support :)
Good point on trim: from Eddy Murphy in 48hrs, “If i don't get some trim soon, i'm going to explode”…..
Being hooked to this channel for a while, it is no doubt the best out there in terms of explaining everything in a very professional but simple manner, looking forward for next Tuesday. #yamaha
Thanks for the feedback!
This guy puts so much effort into his videos
:)
I just learned more useful tips in that 9 minutes than I have in the last 4 months of owning my boat!
Awesome!
Good advices my friend .. I'm just ringing my new 115Yamaha SHO on my boat. Keep the videos coming you dooing a great job . # Yamaha
You were 30 minutes from where I live when you were at the Yamaha school. Great video. #Yamaha
That's close! We'll have to meet up next time!
Hey! You're the winner of the contest, congrats!
Rebuild the fuel pump once a year, change the lower unit lube and spark plugs every fall. Spray 3-in-on oil into each cylinder and turn over the engine a few times before putting the engine away for the winter. Do all this and your outboard will outlast you,
Great video ! Welcome back !!! #Yamaha
I was just at yamaha training in November! 👍
I was up there for two weeks, should have said whats up! What class did you take?
👍good to see you again
Yall are very helpful
Yamaha ! Thanks for the great tips.
You bet!
I use my boat in salt water. It always gets washed and flushed at the end of the day, no matter what. I was using saltaway after every trip, so I guess it was a bit of overkill.
Not overkill at all sir. 👍
I do the same. Protect your investment
Great suggestions and advice for my #Yamaha F80!
good video I've been shifting gears all wrong , I looked around couldn't find,got a link thanks
also is Key west still locked down to none residents
Awesome! Thank you, they open up the keys June 1st
Great video!!
Yesssssss finally it’s Tuesday #Yamaha
best info as usual.
I do all that, and more! You can eat wet scrambled eggs off my engine! And NO MORE EVER on that dumb 'zuki' flusher. In a tub, run after every trip, up to temp! to combat the Fuel cooler from getting stopped up, AGAIN. All maintenance done by me, top to bottom. Every 4-6 months a run of rydlyme, thru it...helps get rid of the mud, too.
I live in Memphis TN. but run 3 Yamaha Jetskis and I have 2007 Macgregor 26 powersail boat with a 50 hp Yamaha outboard 4 stroke. I take them to Pennsacola FL a lot or to any lake that I can find. I love my Yamaha, their reliable on the water. Question do I need to change my oil on my boat motor if I didn’t use it any doing the yr. or lower unit oil ?
Awesome! No, if you had changed it previously or checked it to make sure there wasn't any water in the gear lube and then didn't use it since you checked. You don't need to change it :)
Like my opti no valves always goes
I am my fan of you, excellent video !!! greetings from Argentina colleagues
Awesome, thank you!
Lots of info in short vid. Thx.
Best boating channel on RUclips!!!
THANK YOU!
Thought you left us Aaron and became a teacher at yamaha school lol good to hear from u again #YAMAHA
Hahahah I wonder how much they pay :) I don't really want to live where it gets to 20 degrees though :( it was one morning and I had to scrap the ice off the windshield! Not for me lol Good to hear from you too!
@@BornAgainBoating 20 degrees wouldve been a shock to your system since where you come from but all good now back in the warmth of the Keys
ACTUAL SALT IN THE AIR; I googled it and there is salt content in sea air?
I wondered how significant THAT IS, regarding, EFI and or Carburetors, when running engines in salt water venues?
1473.4 F, evaporates salt or (800.8 C).
A healthy "cooling system" on an outboard thermostats Out at; 140F to 160F.
Therefore, those salty carbon molecules aren't going anywhere?
Certainly the exhaust baffles run much hotter but that process takes place long after the salt content mixes with the fuel?
food for thought.
Great Video!
What about 2 cycle boat engines? Do the same things apply?
#Yamaha love dem 2 strokes!
Was gonna say, I've seen 13,000 hours on some outboards, still going strong. Well taken care of, of course and used daily, all day.
Some guy capt dave on youtube swears most will have major problems by 1500 hrs . I told him that's wrong . I have seen many run ten thousand
@@brandonmurphy4657 Neglected outboards maybe.
bravo - do you believe working on lower unit rebuilt can be done by most dealers or it is a delicate job that can be done by few. on a scale of to 10 being very difficult what would you rate it.
Yes, most dealers should be able to work on a lower, but as far as rebuilding one. It depends on what you are trying to do. With the expense it costs in hours for shop labor. A lot of times, because it is a time consuming project, it's not worth rebuilding a lower unit because you can find a used one or buy a replacement lower for about the same price. So it really depends on what you are trying to do.
Liked the tip about avoiding clutch damage #yamaha
I flush the motor after each trip but don't turn it over just a flush for 15mins, is what I'm doing correct?
Hi, do you have a video explaining how to replace the lower gear? I have a 150 HP Mercury Optimax.
What do you mean exactly by changing the lower gear? A gear in the lower unit or just the whole lower unit by itself?
@@BornAgainBoating HI, sorry to delay in an answer you. I mean the whole lower unit - Part# 9148T84.
Learning how to trim your motor will also help you navigate rough seas with a smoother ride and danger.
trim up to plane out? im a bit new.
Is there any problem running Salt Away more than once a year. I use it twice a month. Thanks
How long should I flush the engine with hose water
What do i do i have and evinrude 75 hp 1988 and when i buyed it it did not have a trim, do you know what theys kinda trims cost?
I run saltaway through on a ‘every other outing’ frequency. Overkill or okay???
Thanks!
Thanks for the tips! Have you ever experienced a Yamaha 4 stroke "making oil"?
No worries, thank you for your support! Yes, absolutely lol lots of Yami's "make oil." It's usually from extended no wake, idle, or trolling time. But there are a few models that do it more excessively than others. As long as you keep an eye on it then it's not going to be anything to worry about. We've seen them go 150-200 hours and have like a gallon fuel of oil!
@@BornAgainBoating It's good to hear that point of view. My F300 is doing it and the Marina where I purchased it said it probably wasn't broken in correctly and the rings didn't seat. They sent me to "The Hull Truth", where there's a 14 page thread saying it's a problem that Yamaha, sometimes, isn't willing to "fix". Its a 2015 motor I bought this summer with only 30 hrs. They did some kind of upper head clean and told me to run the blank out of it, which I did. Still making oil...doesn't seem right to have the "lubricity" of the oil compromised by gasoline.
#Yamaha
Tuesday Yamaha!!!
My dad has a 78 Johnson 35, I estimate he has about 8k hours on that damn thing and it still runs great
That's awesome! a 78 lol :) the boat that has this merc on it had a 2 stroke Suzuki on it before, he had about 8K on it too :) we'll see if this merc gets that high lol
@@BornAgainBoating they last as long as they're taken care of
@@c.shoefish This is very true :)
My in-laws have an old 80s Johnson 35 two stroke that was sitting in the dirt for who knows how long. I managed to get it to kick over after dribbling some fuel in it. Still needs the carb and the fuel pump rebuilt but I imagine it'll be a solid motor after that.
Are you in GA? That opening shot looks like Yamaha Marine headquarters in Ackworth?
What’s too long storing fuel in the tank!
Hey I have a question I have 2 2005 Yamaha 250 four stroke outboards both with 1200 hours and my port engine has a knocking sound and has a loss in power
Could be anything! You'll want to start by making sure your service is all up and then go into troubleshooting the engine
i have a problem with slow shifting in reverse but i cant do much about it #yamaha
My dad is the worst about slow shifting. I think that he thinks he’s driving a tractor.
My tractor has 32gears all selected semi auto .push button clutch less your boat has 1 forward 1reverse
dave smith... the only tractor I know anything about driving was my grandfathers 1980 John Deere 850. It had two gear shifters which gave you a lot of gear ratios to pick from, but you had to come to a complete stop to pick the gears you wanted. I think when my dad is putting my boat in gear, he thinks the gears will eventually stop moving like it does in a tractor.
For the most part there is a lot of luck involved. I have seen people who break all the rules and have fantastic luck.I have seen people who do it all by the book with terrible results. Happy boating!
I think it depends on location like here in ft lauderdale there a lot of idle only zones other which causes a lot of carbon build up etc also are the boat trailered or sitting in the water it whole life
Yamaha. Do you ever do service on Yamaha waverunner?
Negative :)
Regarding the Yamaha F225 corrosion issue, is it not true that no amount of flushing will prevent these engines from consuming themselves? The corrosion occurs at a point in the exhaust path above where cooling water enters the path, so salt isn't causing the corrosion. Poor metallurgy or coatings are the issues at play.
Ethanol is the culprit here. Acids used to produce ethanol react with the metal in the exhaust with these units.
@@milkylicker6963 Well, perhaps. No other engines seem to have this issue and they all burn Ethanol. And back to my statement, the corrosion occurs well above where cooling water enters the exhaust. Funny how no one at Yamaha seems to acknowledge this fact.
Hey can u help me out am look for a Yamaha outboard engine to buy a 115 r 100
What diagnostics tool are you using for these yahama engines.
YDIS its yamahad diagnostic software
Great Video, I have a 2007 200hp Verado and I was wondering what the baseline readings for water pressure, oil pressure and temp would be on the smartcraft gauges should be so I can monitor this.
Thank you and awesome! That's a 6 cylinder 200 right? Your water pressure will vary at idle down to 1 psi sometimes but usually around 1.5 or 2 or so, then at wide open it can get all the way up to like 16 or 18 sometimes higher! Oil pressure should stay above 60 psi at wide open it can get up to 80 or higher. Then the oil temp I'm not 100% sure on, but it'll be in the 200's.
Very educational video. Enjoyed it. #Yamaha
Why isn’t there a air filter on outboards?
Great tips love the channel #yamaha 🤞
Are there any 50-75hp motors that stand out to you as being especially bad, or especially good in terms of corrosion?
Umm most are good as far as corrosion goes from worst to best: Honda, Suzuki, then a tie between Mercury and Yamaha :)
@@BornAgainBoating Great thanks. My 99' Honda is still going strong but must be on borrowed time after 20+ years of year round use in salt so I'm starting to look for a replacement. Lots of flushing , washing and soaking with silicone after each use has kept it going so far, so if Honda is the worst from your experience then maybe any brand will do OK as a replacement.
What I would give for those gas prices again.... Around Timestamp 1:20.
Guter Mann,ein Top aus Deutschland von der Havel
Vielen Dank!
Welcome back! How was class?
It was good, it's always nice to get around other techs and here about stuff going on across the industry. As well as talk to the tech support guys, the instructors, and play around with the bugged engines :)
I know this isn’t new……but great vid.
Instant like!!! I have a old two stroke I'm pretty sure is going to outlive me the boat and its next victim 😂
I am done with Yamaha. Threw a rod through the block with only 227 hours on a F300 the other day. Motor was out of warranty. I did everything by the book exceptionally. Going to Yamaha's outboard website and all they talk about is "Reliability this Reliability that". Yeah right, what a Joke Yamaha is, and their customer service was not helpful in the least, couldn't have cared in the least little bit why one of their precious motors threw a rod with only 227 hours on it while being meticulously maintained. Screw Yamaha, I got social media skills too and I will advertise every chance I get how poor their product is. Good video tho man, you do good work which is why I watch your stuff.
Great video, any differences in maintenance for those of us that are fresh water only? #Yamaha
factory spec. maintenance is standard, but it always depends on what your boat use and purpose is. I always ran about 15% richer oil mix, spark plug fouling is a lot less upsetting than an overhaul.
A major factor is the quality of fuel. Marina's have a reputation for watery gas (and are expensive) but if your marina service seaplanes try a 50% mix of aviation fuel.
freshwaterguytoo
Not really, just a lot less cleaning and you don't need to use as much grease lol you still want to change all the same stuff and grease all the same points. You just don't see all of the corrosion issues as salt water!
