Took the boat to the San Joaquin delta today. Beautiful, but hot weather.
Couple problems I have to fix. Did try fishing, but only undersized
stripers to be caught. Went to turn on the blower, and drops the voltage I
see about 2 volts. Must be frozen. And when went to shift my T8 Yamaha
kicker. The shifter broke. Shift cable seems to be frozen. That will be a
couple boat bucks. Nice motors, but Yamaha is very proud of the parts.

Yamaha wanted over $550 for a solenoid for my 150hp. Tim got me going for about $23. I'd look around a whole lot before buying from Yamaha.

Cable is a specialized item. As well as the shifter casting. I think I
can weld up the casting with my mig welder. $122 on the internet for the
cable.

You should be able to buy a Morse or Teleflex cable for around $50
unless Yamaha does cables differently than everyone else.

Call a parts house. You pretty much only need to specify length.
Transfer ends from one cable to the other.

Dickson has no interest in being gainfully employed, not when he can sponge off the labours of decent hard working Ontario residents.
