Just finished my 1500 hour

It took about 4 hours, not much compared to the $700 in labor the Yamaha dealer charges, plus full retail on the parts instead of the ~30% off you get on the internet. Nothing exciting turned up (no water in the oil etc) and the computer says I still have never thrown a code for anything. So far so good on my 2012 F70. I still have a few little things to do on the boat but we will splash for our regular boat ride tomorrow. I might go ahead and work on the trailer before I put it away (wheel bearing clean and pack mostly) My 2003 Yamaha T-8 has only had two problems in all those years. Piece of dirt or something on the idle jet. And the shifter cam in the handle broke. They make good engines and assemblies. Well, don't break anything. I busted the plastic case for the starter solenoid. Yamaha wanted well over $500 for a new solenoid. Tim got me one that worked for about $26.75! |
