View Full Version : Yamaha spark plug wires
piemma 03-13-2017, 06:43 AM I want to replace my plug wires on a 115 4 stroke Yamaha outboard.
I CANNOT find them online and I have looked for hours. Anyone have any ideas or names. It appears that I have to buy from a dealer for about $70 for 4 wires, which I think is outrageous.

Looks like they're part of ignition coil assembly...

Clammer 03-13-2017, 09:27 PM SD that why I asked WHY ><><>:kewl:
piemma 03-14-2017, 09:00 AM The reason why is because one of the wires #4, got torn (the outer covering), while changing the plugs. I taped the rubber and then liquid taped over the tape.
You guys think it'll be OK?
Clammer 03-14-2017, 02:22 PM that will be fine ..........don,t change the plugs ><><
Guppy 03-14-2017, 04:44 PM that will be fine ..........don,t change the plugs ><><

JFigliuolo 03-15-2017, 06:57 AM I hate it when a little problem becomes a big problem...
piemma 03-16-2017, 07:24 AM Thanks guys. I'll go with it the way it is. As for the plugs, I change them every year with NGK Iridium plugs and I NEVER have problems.
Clammer 03-16-2017, 07:52 AM I never change them &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& I never have problems ><.,

Absolutely!!
Clammer 03-16-2017, 04:32 PM AS LONG AS I IDLE SMOOTH & all the levels of power show good on the tack & tack out 5800 to 6000 I leave it alone ><>
Guppy 03-16-2017, 07:07 PM Wow, 53 54 is my top end
Shouldn't have changed the plugs... LOL :deadhorse:
Clammer 03-16-2017, 09:14 PM just tilt the prop out of the water <><> or15":doh:

Gup, Mike is running a 150 not a 115 like us. My WOT is 5400 RPMs
JFigliuolo 03-17-2017, 07:04 AM Wow... for a 4s that's at the low end of the range no? I like to prop to hit the top of the range. I like to mess with stuff (since I can't catch fish). I'd drop down 2" pitch to get my max RPM up at/near 6000K for your engine. Heck i top out at 5200 (max 5500 for my motor) and i wish it was a bit higher (not enough to drop money on a another new prop though).
Clammer 03-17-2017, 12:22 PM 5700 today with a full tank & digging gear on just a short run ..................had to break ice to get in the slip ><><:jump1:

Joe, I'm not sure. She runs great so I'm not messing with it. I am at 32 knots@ 5400. I'm certain I could get more RPMs and a higher top end with a different prop but I'm running a stainless prop with the specs the Yami dealer recommended for my boat and motor.
I usually only run between 4200 and 4500 anyway so I don't need a higher RPM output. 4500 puts me at about 26 knots.

Ya, 42 to 4500 sounds like the sweet spot, I get a little less speed than that, I must weigh more than u.....:hidin:
Clammer 03-18-2017, 10:54 AM 4200 TO 4400 IS RIGHT FOR MINE ><.

Gup, I use to run at about 22 23 Knots but I had trim taps put on last year and pick up a few knots
