Why?? This and the suzuki / mikuni system is extremely reliable and easy to maintain. More issues with oil mixing properly in a bigger inboard tank than the oil injection gives by far!
Perfect explanation of what I’m looking for. Was trying to ohm coils this morning when I found the switch. I tried it and heard it pump. Took the boat out and it used all the oil out of the top reservoir until it got to the min level then sounded the alarm. We had to idle back to the launch. Guess my pump just went out…
This video is excellent. I couldn't get the wiring harness disconnected until I watched this. Thank you! I replaced the pump, but it also seems I have a loss of current in the wiring harness as voltage drops below 12v over time. Regardless, excellent video. Thank you!
I’m glad it was useful! Wish I knew more about the wiring harness issue you’re having. I imagine there is a relay somewhere in the circuit which is energized by the float switches and in turn energizes the pump. Said relay would be a prime suspect! Good luck!
@@thomastaggart4581 Any advice on where I can find the relay for the external oil pump? Pump works when hooked directly to a 12v battery. I ordered a new harness after shortening the old one to 3 feet and still getting 7 volts. I'm scanning the manual for the relay. Thanks!
All I can tell you is there is an identical blue connector on the engine wiring wiring harness under the cowling. The feeder tube runs up to the oil reservoir on the engine. Sorry I don’t have any more info on that!
i put in the new pump and filter but it wont fill the upper tank automatically, only if I use the emergency toggle switch. what could it be? the pump was bad and wouldn't work even with the toggle switch before I changed it. So i know the pump is working now. Help
My remote oil tank is not connected. Where do I connect the wire with the blue ends when I bring it to the outboard motor ? And where do I connect the feeder tube. I have all the parts just not sure how to hook it up. Yamaha OX66 2 stroke. Thanks.
The oil pump itself has a short blue wire and a short brown wire. They connect to the wiring harness that has a blue connector. I believe that cable will pass through the hull with all the other wires, cables,etc that go directly to the outboard. The feeder tube runs in the same bundle all the way to the oil reservoir on the engine.

What was your issue. My boat run good no alarm going 20 mph but when I start going 40 mph the alarm comes on. I think the oil is not filling fast enough. Can you tell if the alarm is oil or over heating
Hey Jesse! Hope your repairs are going along nicely. Not sure which tank you had break but regardless, I’m pretty sure the sensor would just pull off. Having said that, I did not remove the sensor in the sub-oil tank, which is the one inside the hull of the boat.
61A-85730-00-00 Boats.net shows this level sensor for the sub oil tank. Looks like it has a rubber bushing that fits into the top of the tank. Let us know how it goes. Good luck!
🤔 seems like the switch should be relocated to the console with a low oil light from the engine. The same should be done with the sub oil tank. It wouldn't take much to accomplish this. The time and hassles this would've save many people over the past 30+ years.
No. The gauge on the dash has oil level combined with an alarm for low oil and oil flow. If you don't have the gauge, it's an audible alarm only but 95% came with the gauge!
HEY BROTHER IM YAMAHA HPDI 300 THE PROBLEM MY BOAT RUNNING NOT TRANSFER THO OIL TANK NEW SENSOR NEW PUMP NOT TRANSFER ARROW NOT WAT HAPPENED HELL M. EVRITING NEW SORRY MY ENGLISH not perfect
I took this part out of my 06 Yamaha now I premix and I’ll never go back!

I pulled that motor apart. Magnets had become unglued. I glued them back in place. Part runs like a dream.

I’m sure you figured this out by now but there is an emergency pump switch on the engine, it takes a while to pump but it gets there
It's useful to rig up a jumper lead to the battery and the pump and make sure it's the pump and not a wiring issue ..Nice video.Thankyou
How can you determine a wire issue. I replaced my pump and it’s still not working thanks

@@virginiafishing1 Man I wish I had a diagram I could probably find it but unfortunately I don’t. Sorry!
Super helpful. Thank you for taking the time to share this info.
Thank You, I just PM’d my Skeeter SL210, and changed out that filter.
Thanks mate i had a problem yesterday pump stuck keep pumping the oil. time i realise tank was all most empty thanks for sharing
Nice job, thank you for taking the time to share!
Excellent video! Thank you for sharing...

Look in your manual. A steady tone is engine overheat. Intermittent is either low oil or no oil depending on alarm duration
My tank broke and I bought a new one. Does the sensor simply pry off the tank. Seems to be a very tight fit. Thanks!
