How to service VST on Yamaha F150 outboard
You didn't show how the filter goes back together I thought I had but it won't seat all the down for reassembly
nice video been following as I do rebuild - e clip on accelerator pump did not go on as easy for me. then I just took set screw holding linkage rod in place put pump on and e clip outside of bowl easy peasy. thanks for posting
I changed the low pressure pump still doing problem Does switch control the pump?
Do you have the torque specs by chance?
Where to get the an new cilinder?
Rebuilinf mine. Not getting gas out of the bowl into carb. Should accelerator pump be tight or loose when pumping. The one i got is loose and old one is hanging up halfway
No one ever seems to mention proper clocking of the thermostat, theres a tiny dot/indentation on all these thermostats. It seems to me these marks should be oriented at either 6-12 or some other position. Or am i just trippin.?
Is that an angler? 22? Speed?
I think I would be more concerned about where the waters coming from into the fuel
Great video
Where are you located in Maine? Im in Southern maine loking for help installaing a 4.3 merc as well as the outdrive..
I’m up just a little north of Augusta
If you adjust the electric choke cold, adjust it SO THE CHOKE IS IN A 1/3 OPEN POSITION, summer time. 1/3 crank of the throttle and start. Closed it takes too much time for the choke to completely open and idle the engine properly, Adjust for cold weather.
Well done. Informative down to the point Thank you for sharing
What do you use for part numbers? I bought the Service manual from my Yamahaf150 and doesn't list any, I was disappointed 😔.
Best thing to do is get on boats.net or simyamaha and use their parts lookup with your model and serial numbers to make sure you’re getting the correct parts.
@@maineboatguy thanks! 🙏
I have the same set up but my steering wheel is wobbly. Do you know what causes that?
Not sure what you mean by “wobbly”? Make sure the steering wheel and helm have the same taper?
Replace the tilt unit part number HA6523
Very informative video, one thing. I’ve been tinkering with my bf 130 and it seems to have the same setup as the 115. Where the fuel pump is located, there is a high pressure filter under the cap with the 3 screws. I noticed you didn’t change that. Not criticizing, just saying because you said you’re not really a Honda guy. Great video though.
Do you have to remove lift pumps when removing vst?. Great vid btw I needed to see this
Not necessary to remove life pumps to do VST service unless you’re having running issues and want to check the diaphragms in the pumps
Great video. I’m doing mine today and step by step video is great! Thanks for sharing!
Any idea on where I can get the pigtail connector that connects to the choke? Mine fell off and need to replace.
Hi very thankful for your video, I have a 2011 Bayliner 175 with the 3.0 Eng that I have not used in 2 years. I truly be I’ve that gas has clogged in the carb line. Is there any chance to open the line and get rid of the clogged without opening the whole carburetor?
Descent video with good content. Clean up your surroundings. Will help some keep focus on project. Didn't see you put in new high pressure filter. Probably all it needed. Also the isolator under fuel pump will come out easier if you twist it by the bottom.
A1 :)
Lord have mercy! Those look like brand new units! How much did you pay per unit? I’ve got a little 60hp and a new unit for it is 3k
Yes, customer requested new trim units, it was a few years ago but I believe they were around $3k each.
Good job buddy
Did you buy those fittings separately or did they come with your new helm. I'll be replacing mine in the spring and I like those fittings. I'm sure I can get them from West Marine or some other place. Thanks for sharing. Also I already took my steering wheel off when I put my boat away for the winter. I makes it easier when taking the reservoir off. Thanks
Hi there where did you buy your replacement parts from?
I typically order them on boats.net but someone pick them up at local dealers.
Hello, thank you for this nice video! I have exact same engine and had water in oil this last September. On that day, I had a 300 lbs guest and they sat on the boat while ai parked the truck. Removed valve cover and noticed one broken valve spring with a bent push rod. The exhaust flapper was completely gone. Is it possible water came in from the exhaust back into the engine? I removed the head and gasket and spark plugs looked good.
I've owned several and I haven't found any that heat your fingertips. How are these on the fingertips?
I still dont understand why the stock cam has a decompression pin and the hotcams has nothing. Whats the fix? Also how do i know if my chain guard is bad or if the tensioner is bad?
The decompression makes them easier to start. If Honda didn’t use it they’d have a ton of hard start complaints. I’ve had more tensioners fail than chain guides so unless you have a lot of hours on the engine I would be inspecting the tensioner first.
440 ex stage 2 hot cam. Heard a pop and now wont fire. Turns over fine. 1 rocker arm was tight and wouldnt drop on its own. Loosened it. Cam chain is super loose. Guessing the tensioner is bad? 0 starting issues to wont even attempt tk fire
Where can I get iGrip studs in Maine? I’m in Central Maine near Augusta.
Any power sports dealer should be able to order them from Kimpex. Central Maine power sports should be able to.
One thing that was missed from the beginning is how the engine actually rigs to the tractor chain. Is there a hook on the motor to rig to, or do you need an OEM Yamaha part to connect the tractor or engine hoist chain?
You can find lifting eyes on Amazon that will fit, they bolt to the flywheel. All engine lifting points are different so I didn’t go over that part.
@@maineboatguy I found it! Thank you for the good info 👍👍
Excellent video of your elbow at work. Perhaps you should consider getting a different camera angle so the rest of the world can see what your actually working on.
Awesome video. Only have a gap of .02. So two hundredth of an inch. Or .5 mm
Was filter and pump housing clean and free of plack.
I had a problem in the last inch and a half, it doesn't happen, what do you think the problem would be? thank you
Great informative video. You know your stuff, and works nice and steady. Thanks.
Great vid! Question, How do I know if i have the long or short linkage? I'm buying a boat that had the carburetor removed so i dont which one to order. it's a 2005 Searay 175. Thanks
No audio
I have the same problem I’ll guess. Milky oil. Change headgasket still water in oil. What else can I do?
Possibly a cracked block? Are you in an area where the engine could’ve froze over the winter? Is the boat new to you?
This does depend on how you use it also, engine should be used normally above idle for more than 45min at a time to burn off condensation, short runs are not good for burning condensation.
Thank you!! I serviced mine today first time ever while floating in the slip. You made it easy
Really well done and gave me the confidence to tackle! But I do have a question... I was very careful taking apart and putting back together - mine actually very clean EXCEPT for the filter! When I was finished I noticed a 1" round rubber gasket on the floor. I don't recall seeing anything like this when I took apart and your video doesn't show anything like this in the VST. Now worried that I missed something... any feedback?
That did not tell me nothing. ?? 😮 but but you learn more sometimes more in comment section lol thanks.😮
Well at least you’re learning something right? 🤔
So been through my BF90 fuel system. New filters, new hp fuel pump,strainer, cleaned out VST, new injectors as could not get one of em to work, and had to really clean tarnish off the brass spade connectors for the hp fuel pump. Looked at and cleaned float needle. Seems low pressure fuel pump is ok. Cleaned out water strainer. Think of anything I missed? Gonna try one more time to start, so far cranks but nothing.
Have you verified correct fuel pressure? Is the VST filling with fuel?
I got a 1990 mercruiser 3.0 and my choke doesnt snap back to closed when i move my throttle. When she cools off with the engine off she will return to closed but nothong on tbe linkage makes the choke want to be forced shut???
The spring in the choke is what forces it closed
on those 135's 2004 - is it common to hear a low rumble sound at idle got FWD/REV? 500 hrs. Not my motor, but one I may purchase . Corrosion causing exhaust to leak by was one persons theory..
Without actually hearing the noise I couldn’t tell you if it was common. I would check the lower unit oil and pull the lower unit to inspect exhaust, driveshaft etc
@@maineboatguy where are u out of. my old stomping grounds are downeast
I have a water tube clogged by impeller bits, do I have to do all this to clear/replace the water tube? Is there a work around to clear the tube without removing everything? Thanks. Great Video.
Depending how clogged it is you might be able to remove the thermostat and blow out the cooling system with compressed air. If that doesn’t work you will have to pull the power head to get it all out.
Really nice that ya show pictures, because we cant hear what your saying
You want to sell that 250 yamaha
Thanks for this. I have the same motor.
