Default Worlds Most Powerfull 4 stroke OB


I think its pulling the cam cover and adjusting the valves. With waterpump
the Suzuki 90's we are running cost about 250.00 for the 100 hour checkup,
including waterpump impeller. That was prior to opening our own traveling
maintenance shop.

Buy

a

shop
manual and read it. That is usually all the guy at the dealer has

done

and he

probably doesn't read the whole chapter until after he is a couple

parts

into

the easter egg hunt.


Man you got that right!!! I love my old Johnson V-4. Its bad

enough
my

car is

way over my head, I dont need my boat there too.



I have the shop manual for my Yamaha F225. It's convinced me to keep
mitts off the engine.


It's worth having so you can double-check that you're not swindled

by
your
mechanic into replacing your fanozolator more often than you have

to.
Are
the 4-strokes every 50 or 100 hours for that service?


100 hour service cycle, but I will change the oil every 50 or better.


I've heard that the Big Suzuki and Honda four-strokes call for, among

other
things, a 100 hour service that requires pulling the cam and adjusting

the
valves...to the tune of $1000. Anybody else hear that?
