Hot (medium) water is best for dissolve salt. I have installed a hot/cold water mixer tap outside for flushing. I avoid chemicals as they can damage the interior Teflon engine coating over time. Always flush for a few minutes before starting engine. Top flush is best to avoid any particals being lodged into engine.
Hi there. I have a brand new 2021 F25 Yamaha and was wondering if the water pump gets any water through it using the easy hose connection. Very helpful videos. Thanks so much from a Florida viewer. 👍
I thought the engine block itself is supposed to be sprayed with Yamashield (similar to Boeshield T9) while the Silicone spray was more specific for rubber seals/gaskets/etc (silicone is a great rubber conditioner and prevents cracking/drying/etc).
Wow all true but not Yamaha make protective lubricants for many purposes When your leaving an outboard for months on end you do a different process but for normal proventitive Maintanence yamaha recommend their proprietary silicon spray And I can tell you it works a treat and will keep your motor looking new For long term storage we recommend flogging motor internally with another yamaha product
The rectangular ear muffs ( brand new) dont seal properly on my 65 Yammy and will not pump the water through the telltale. I tried squeezing them together and putting them in hot water to soften them up a bit. Still no good. I borrowed an old round set from a mate and they picked up the water straight away and pissed it strongly out of the telltale. Anyone want a brand new used once pair of rectangular earmuffs for free ? Would it be a good practice to leave the motor idling for a minute or so after the muffs are removed so as to pump out any water still remaining inside the motor ? ( Obviously turning motor off as soon as the telltale stops running. )
I've forgotten to screw the cold flush cap back on once or twice when running the motor with flush muffs and water from bottom up, what are the affects of doing this ? I do know when doing this, water comes back out the cold flush pipe...usually shut it down after about 30secs...model is 2016 F130hp 4 Stroke.
What the ? Why flush muffs- there a problem not solution If engine didn’t get enough water it will over heat if hot enough engine will go into limp mode before any real damage The fresh water flush is all you need to wash salt out of motor And you don’t start it just let water flow
@@BrisbaneYamaha I am interested about the pitch of the propeller. I own a boat similar with the one in the movie, same motor with 11x15-G propeller, but the WOT is about 4900 rpm. I intend to buy and change the propeller with one 11x13 or 11x14. And I don't know which is the best choice. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. Just a curiosity. I have the same motor and as shown in video like mine it vibrates a bit. Is it normal or is it to worry about or its a normal thing on oUtboard. Thanks
I agree to drop the annoying music. Also, you skipped over replacing the inner bowl of the impeller housing. Great narrative and including anti-seize on the bolts is essential. Well done !
Shouldn't you flush the engine then wash it down then apply the silicone protection? I ask this because wouldn't the silicone make it difficult to wash off the salt? Just asking.

Yamaha silicon spray All yamaha lubricants and protective sprays are the very best quality possible and are priced lower than they would be if another brand
@@Munrubenmuz mechanics recommend 15 mins. Full operating temp. Just fixed a big hole in block right past the thermostat. Previous owner just used the hose connection for ten years. That's what the owner's manual says .its wrong.
Best of done at marina or when you get home in the driveway. If I bring my boat in at night, I'll flush it the next morning. That is as long as I wait. You don't want the salt drying onto internal surfaces or starting the corrosion process.
By the why I have 4 cr250 s Bloody love em I have Shane metcafe factory race bike I got from Honda Kawasaki quad I’ve got polars buggies Honda Kubota mowers Toyota and Mercedes cars I could have any outboard brand I wanted to sell And I choose yamaha So should you
@21tjd Excellent, thanks for the reply. That is the same motor we have. Ours is a 2017 model with 25 hours on it. We have been doing the cold flush on it. Very happy with the engine
If you run it in salt water you want to flush through the intake ports with muffs squeeze inside the hose a little dawn dish soap and run till clean water runs out! Been doing this for years on all my boats and water craft and the water jackets in the heads have always been very clean with almost no salt deposit!
One major point he missed is to make sure to flush it with Salt Away if you're in salt water. It removes the salt much better than regular H2O and provides corrosion protection. The salt literally melts off. You flush for a couple minutes with regular H2O then Salt Away for another minute or so. Do not flush again with H2O after applying Salt Away because of the corrosion protection from Salt Away. I will then rinse my entire boat with Salt Away including the areas around the motor that this guy points out in the video. Its the only way to prevent corrosion and it works.
Hahaha...yeah, opened a few motors in my time and it works, but no better than a basic detergent flush.......it’s overpriced and overhyped in my opinion....and that of a lot of boating mates, it really sounds like you work for them......if that’s the case then bad from you....dissing another’s opinion 👎
@@lakalaka9436 Don't work for them. Not sure why you would think I do simply because I said its a good idea to use which you also said it works. Its a bit pricey but if I can afford it then so what.

Yes
The grease was flush is all you need to do
Remember do not start motor simply tur. Tap on and fun for 5 minutes
Yes it does
Yamaha wants you to only use fresh water flush

For how long I need to flush ? (first and second way )
5 minute with fresh water flush
Until water is warm with muffs

On every oil change we fill the thermostat hole with descaler only 1-2 minutes, & then start the motor, let him flush itself
Thank you this video saved me alot of money.🎣👍

Kylie Zammit hey mate it’s just cause it’s running all outboards do this no matter how big or small
Prop shaft
Put something in middle of prop shaft and spin prop if shaft moves it shaft
Or prop has damage
Or it’s rooted
Lol
Would wd40 be inappropriate as a lubricant?
Yes. it's not really a lubricant in the first place, it's more of a cleaner with lubricating properties. Use something like silicone lubricant
My dad has been using wd40 for years and it does actually work.. but there are better products out there.
Great video very interesting I have learned some things today thank you very much for a wonderful show. From Sydney Australia 😊😊

marchbah
3.44sec he mentiones after you come back out of water how to wash it
Yes
brand new engine
Yes, you are correct. I do exactly what you do but add a little salt away during the flush.
No saltaway used?
Yamaha has a patient alloy rd30
It’s the reason they don’t corrode like the other brands
great invention. how much does it cost to land one of those in the Caribbean (St. Lucia). 90HP 4stroke 2018 model.

Whats the name of the actual product you are using?
As far as I know, it is the recommended Yamaha Silicone Spray - formulated by Yamaha to prevent corrosion while NOT damaging rubber seals and hoses
Yamalube
What spray are you using please?
Yamaha silicon spray
What type of silicone spray is recommended for marine outboards, particularly Yamaha?
Yamaha silicon spray
All yamaha lubricants and protective sprays are the very best quality possible and are priced lower than they would be if another brand
Wondering how long you are supposed to flush it for? Getting varying times from different sources.
5 minutes
@@BrisbaneYamaha thanks
You should run the engine long enough to open the thermostat
@@WhiteBuffalo032 and how long is that? And how do you know the thermostat is open?
@@Munrubenmuz mechanics recommend 15 mins. Full operating temp. Just fixed a big hole in block right past the thermostat. Previous owner just used the hose connection for ten years. That's what the owner's manual says .its wrong.
What’s the time span on how soon after removing from saltwater does this need to happen?
bill west I think as soon as possible

I thought you would have washed the motor first to remove the salt before spraying with the silicone.
Your right
dang, Ive been attaching the hose to the top connection (no muffs), and running the motor
By the why I have 4 cr250 s
Bloody love em
I have Shane metcafe factory race bike I got from Honda
Kawasaki quad
I’ve got polars buggies
Honda Kubota mowers
Toyota and Mercedes cars
I could have any outboard brand I wanted to sell
And I choose yamaha
So should you
@@BrisbaneYamaha got a KTM 450 XCF now.
If the boat lives in the water and I'm flushing from the top attachment is it a bad idea to flush it with engines titled up?
flushing with the engine up is fine. Also use a salt remover like salt away along with the mixer that comes in the kit.
hi there ,what are you spraying on the motor ?dw50?
Yamaha silicon spray
suwun mas
Personally I would of washed first, let dry then apply silicon.
Fair most time no water has reached upset cowl
Yes salt air

High thrust does the job
not clear how to flush.
Ask your kids it’s not complicated
Там пластик на него можно 200 л. Сил. Вешать смело
ima commercial fisherman never sprayed me outboard ahahahahaha
Nothing new there
You should not spray before you wash with water..
He simulated if you had just gotten off the water.
We don't do that we just hose it down
