Excellent instruction video, only lacking; starting the engine to fill the oil filter and rechecking oil level. Also, while on the lower end, remove the prop and check for fish line on the prop shaft that can damage the oil seal. Very well done.
Lol 😆 so I've been doing the lower unite change wrong for 30 + years😵 makes soooooo much more sence how you did it. Me huge mess, a real pain, frustrated, reluctan to do it. Bought several gadgets, made some gadgets, just to find out to fill from the bottom, oh well ..... That makes sence, why have I been soooooo blind for three decades??? THANK YOU!!!!!!
It is a privilege to watch talented young people share the valuable skills they have learned and pass on the knowledge they have. Very cool, and thank you for a great video! Here are two "tips" I recently picked up regarding this particular job. Evaluate them yourself and see if they are worth including in your own skill set. First tip is to prefill the oil filter before you place it on the engine. Inside the oil filter is specially treated filtration paper. When you prefill the oil filter that filtering material soaks up the oil; you can actually pour a surprisingly amount of oil into the filter then install the filter without have any of the oil you put into the filter leak out. The advantage in doing this step is that lubricating oil gets to your engine's critical surfaces faster following the oil change because the oil doesn't have to first fill up the filter, then soak through the filtering material before passing on through the filter to the internal critical surfaces. The second tip is to put some (heavier duty) tape on the skeg below the lower oil drain/fill hanging off the skeg straight down. Then when the oil drains instead of running all the way down the skeg it starts down the skeg and then transitions to the tape and drips off the tape into whatever you are using to collect the old gear case oil. - Respectfully
@@martyhonda6983 yes and no. Don’t fill it up. If you put about half full the material will soak it up, knocking the time down to fill up and then coat the inner parts
Hey guys, this is an awesome video full of great info and done in a "straight forward fashion". I would love it if you guys could do the same instructional on a Yamaha f9.9 four-stroke. It's different enough that I would love to see it done.
We actually have a 1999 4HP Yamaha and a 2012 8HP Yamaha that we will be releasing here in the next few weeks! The 8HP isn't too different than the 9.9HP so keep an eye out for those videos in the next few weeks!
I understood everything in the video and it was very well done but I was under the impression that Yamalube was beer. Beer is a necessary lubrication to get the wrench turner properly asphyxiated to do the job and ignore all outside interference such as wife and dog and small children.
Hold on a second. The oil filter o ring was not on the filter when you took it off. Also always check the lower unit lube holes for the little gasket that likely got stuck. Dont want to be doubling up seals or gaskets. Good for you tho bud, you did good.
I do believe it is there in the video. Very good points with making sure not to double up seals and gaskets, I've seen someone do that before. Not Recommended~! 😅
Terrific video! Many thanks. One question. I'm having a real problem identifying which oil filter to use for a 2001 4-stroke 25hp Yamaha outboard. The number in your video is usually changed when I try to order.
It should say which filter you need in the owner manual. Hopefully this may help! Cheers! yamahaoutboards.com/en-us/home/owner-resources/all/owners-manuals
Great instruction video. Yamaha has a new model of 25HP, The F25LWTC. It is fuel injected; and while the oil filter is in the same location, the fuel filter is not. Also, the pil pan drain plug is in a different location, which right now, I cannot locate.
It will say it in your owners manual, but if you dont have your owners manual, you can open the cowling and it should state on the engine how much oil and what type. You can also look up the owners manual online, just make sure its the correct year and model.
@@thecollegequarterdeck I’m having a fuel starve issue at high rpm . I’ve changed everything that pertains to lack of fuel . New gas line, primer ball and tank , cleaned carb jets , new plugs , new fuel pump and screen filter , oil changed she runs great for about 5 min then it chugs if I pull back 1/4 throttle it seems ok . I’d like to be able to drive WOT
Great question! We got it from our local parts/outboard dealer here in Newport Beach. You can buy the pump online and should be listed as a "Yamaha Outboard Lower Oil Pump". You want to look for the same pump size for your container. We use this lower gear case oil/pump for different types of outboards so the threads don't always match, so you may want to check your thread size as well. Hope this helps!

Is it a two or four stroke? the 2 stroke cannot create 20hp as the block is too small, however the 4 strokes share an identical block meaning you only need a different carb
They are small circles that fit around the oil screws. They should be yamaha brand. If you talk to your parts dealer, they will be able to let you know if they need to be motor specific. You can looking up the outboard and find the parts number.
Hello 40hp and 30hp Yamaha long leg 4tienpos how much they cost new or used of those I am from Uruguay only spoke for tra. If you can pass me your cell phone number to communicate them thank you
The price would depend on the year and model you choose to buy. Also, depending on if you want a new or used one as well. If it's used, it will also vary on condition.
WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is an older motor he is working on. I could not find my manual so I added 1.6L of oil. Motor was waaaaaay to full. I had to drain our .5L because the newer motors only hold 1.1L (2021).

These are two great points! Thank you for bringing them to our attention, we appreciate it!
If you fill the filter you will lose that oil It mounts sideways

Thanks man, I have used these video multiple times.
Glad to hear. Thats our goal! :)
Very well done. Nicely informative, tips on potential problems, good camera work to understand the wheres & whys.
Nice!!! Easy to follow and to the point! Good job

Thank you bro from Kuwait

Great video, thank you for keeping it simple but on point!
Thats the goal! Glad we could help ^-^
Love this. Perfectly explained.
Thank you! We appreciate the support!
First class tuition 🏴👍👍👍
Thanks! I think :)
Nice work on a nice motor. fyi oil goes through the funnel easier if you pop out the dipstick so displaced air can escape out from the dipstick tube.
Yes! We love airflow ^-^
Thank y’all again for the oil change videos. Very helpful! Hope to see more from you guys
Thank you! We appreciate the support. :D
Thank you sir keep it up
very informative video, wish i had a workshop instead of working on boat engine outside.
Yeah, we're right there with you 😔 Could always try to back it into the garage 😎
Thanks for the video. Very helpful and well done.
At 4:03, good idea also to fill new Oil Filter w/ fresh new Oil, pre-soaks the baffles inside-- easier on the engine on start-up.
Something i didnt know then, great info for the present :) thanks!
Yes! Thank you:)
You're welcome :D
Very good sir,alot of informatioms to learn.

You need to start engine to fill up oil filter then stop it and recheck oil level
Ahh Yes! I forgot to cut out the oil check part since we didn't start the outboard. Thank you for the reminder! 😊

Torque settings would have been very helpful.
Trueeeeee!
Only thing is where I live I won't be able to get an oil filter for the upper unit
No amazon or anything? What about where you got the outboard from?
@@thecollegequarterdeck Action Marine in Dothan. Plus I don't like buying on-line I like to go to a store and get it right then and there
@@davros123ify Ahhh That is fair. You will have to see if there is a parts dealer near you.
5 stars.
Thanks :3
I have the same outboard motor but after ever minute it goes off what is the problem
Could be a fuel delivery issue, but its hard to say without more detas
Thank you this really helps me..
We're happy to help! :D
But i thank you guys because I'm from a small county called Samoa.. But luckily we have TH-cam.. Is very helpful so now i fix my own..

Do you have a link to that oil filter wrench?
Yes, the link in the description of the video should work. If it doesn't, let me know!

Cuánto de aceite lleva el motor y el de transmisión motor Yamaha 25 4 tiempos
Hi College, the Yamaha 9.9 JMH 4 strokes doesnt have a normal oil filter. How can i change the "oil strainer" ? thank you for any help
Normally the oil strainer is left as is since its such a hassle to get to.
But also feel free to reach out to your local distributor/ repair shop and see what they have to say
Your missing gasket may have been stuck to lower unit. Seen it before
Yup, sometimes they get doubled up which is not good.
So the outboard has to come off the boat ?
No, you can keep it on the boat. We just used this outboard that was on the stand as an example. Of course, you will have to remove it from the water.
Would a 2019 four stroke 25hp Yamaha be the same
Models can change from year to year so you will have to look at your outboard and compare.
how much oil should be poured into the engine?
It will say it in your owners manual, but if you dont have your owners manual, you can open the cowling and it should state on the engine how much oil and what type. You can also look up the owners manual online, just make sure its the correct year and model.
@@thecollegequarterdeck I have the same engine as in the video, Yamaha F25D et 2015, I saw the information in the video that it was 1.6l, thank you
Of that MODEL EU you will show in the video the 25hp
.
Does that engine have pull start or no because I’m trying to find one that doesn’t have pull start just one that connects to steering
This outboard and most of our 20-25HP Yamaha do not have pull starts, they all start with a key.
I have 2019 on my pontoon with tilt trim......
Does that filter fit a 20hp? I have the 4 stroke 20hp. Also where did you buy it?
So You're going to want to look at the owner's manual because depends on the model and the year will depend on which filter you want to use.
Need some help with the same motor
What type of help?
@@thecollegequarterdeck I’m having a fuel starve issue at high rpm . I’ve changed everything that pertains to lack of fuel .

How much engine oil is in the filling?
As in "How much oil is put into the upper end of the outboard?"
I ordered the same lower unit oil you used but it did not come with the pump/ tube for filling from the bottom. Any links to where I could find one?

hey Maybe you know how to boost Yamaha 15 horsepower to 20hp ?
Grzegorz Gawkowski We are not too familiar with boosting outboards, so we dont have any info to provide on that topic.
Is it a two or four stroke? the 2 stroke cannot create 20hp as the block is too small, however the 4 strokes share an identical block meaning you only need a different carb
What do the gaskets on the lower half look like and do they have to be outboard motor specific?
They are small circles that fit around the oil screws. They should be yamaha brand. If you talk to your parts dealer, they will be able to let you know if they need to be motor specific. You can looking up the outboard and find the parts number.
Looking to change oil for 15 hp motor
I have the footage, just need to edit it :D
Do Yamaha 8hp have oil filters?
Usually they have oil strainers which are hard to get to and remove so people usually dont swap it. Its similar to the 4HP video we made. :)
У меня YAMAHA F 9.9 JMH. - Отличный мотор.👍🇷🇺
Thanks! I think?

Yup! You should always check your manual as stated in the video before filling up your outboard as it varies from model to model.
