No big deal. I did throw a belt at it. It was a tad over $100 in
parts, I did the water pump kit on the 1400 hour. That adds another
$50 or so.
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!

If I ever lose that $500 "all in one" starter, tilt, trim solenoid, I
will get a couple "ice cube" relays and a good old starter solenoid.

I'm talking about the 'starter' solenoid. The one mounted on the 'starter'. Don't know about the one
to which you refer. Not all 'good old starter solenoids' fit that Yamaha starter.

Some models have a combination module that incorporates the starter
and tilt/trim relays. I thought that was what you meant. I just heard
about it, to be honest I never really looked at mine that closely but
since it is in the driveway, I will before splashdown.

I'll bet it's got a solenoid on the starter, dedicated to the starter. Solenoids and relays aren't
the same thing.
