Yes it is. * The small boatengineof choice in the Caribbean is
something called a Yamaha Enduro 75.

They are all over the place, typically tiller steered and manual
start. *Most of the boats they are on do not even have a battery.


I have pull started my old Yamaha/Mariner 75 *a number of times. (we
didn't boat that much in those days). If it wouldn't start right away
I would pull it instead of killing the battery.
I also started my current EFI 4 stroke 60 but it wouldn't run with a
bad (open cell) battery. The computer saw an immediate overvoltage and
shut down. The gauge was pegged. Turning on the lights didn't help
much. I was hooking up my Q beam when a neighbor came by and offered
me a tow. I am still curious if it would have worked.

It was easy to pull through tho, as was the 75.


225 hp. V-6 Evinrudes didn't pull start very well. I gave one all I
had and it hit compression and it was an imediate dead stop, and
pulled the rope handle right out of my hands. OUCH!

I noticed that my 85 hp v-4 sea horse doesn't even have a rope start
style flywheel or rope provision under the hood.


Probably for the better.

You go away. I'm here. Too bad if you don't like it.

You are either trolling or have a total lack of knowledge combined

You sound like an angry child... leave me alone, leave me alone... well,

You folks are unreal. This woman (?) has made over 5700 posts since she's been
here ( http://tinyurl.com/29qxx2p ), and most of them have been answered.
Probably half the answers have told her what a troll or moron she was, yet folks
continue to put up with her.

Infantile fascination, or what?

BTW, she's changed her email addy so Google now profiles her differently. She
did manage to escape a filter, for a minute or two.

I read the wiki on diesels, and I think I read that if a diesel is
running, then it doesn't need a spark (e.g., battery energy) to
keep
running. If that's the case, then it seems like you should be able
to
start a diesel by hand, assuming you have the muscle or leverage.
So,
in
the former case, even if your battery died - perhaps got wet and
shorted
out - then the engine would keep running. In the latter situation
if
the
battery was already dead, you might be able to crank it to start
it.

In the old days you could do just that. Any modern diesel has
electronic
controls.

recently
that you're an idiot?

Bill answered your post correctly. Why the hatred?

No hatred, and no he didn't answer the questions I asked.

Bill told you exactly the same thing as jps, he just used less words
to express the same thoughts. You reacted differently. There's your
"hatred".

Oh, and you never asked any questions in your post, you simply made
some statements of your understanding after having read a wiki. A
question would be something like... Am I correct? Do they work like
this? There isn't a single question mark in your post, or even a
sentence formed as a question.

Your conversational and social skills are sorely lacking.

Reply: He didn't. He didn't answer the second part. If you're unable
to
figure out there was an implied question and he did and attempted to
answer
it, your statement is what's lacking in brain power.

Bill's reply first, then jps...

In the old days you could do just that. = If your diesel was a
throwback of many decades, you'd be right.
*The same.*

Any modern diesel has electronic controls. = Motors have brains now
and that brain often controls both fuel, spark and timing -- and needs
to be powered.
*The same.*

Electronic controls, by definition, must be powered to function. Bill
just didn't dumb down his response enough for *you*. He obviously
over-estimated you.


Reply: Obviously, you're just as much of a jerk as you've always been.
Why
don't you plonk me. You'll feel better about yourself.



"reply:"? Is your news reader broken or haven't you learned how to use
it
yet? Go bake some cookies.



Poor baby!


Gee. I would think a lawyer could do better.



You think??!! Shocker.
