Lost a Cylinder
Lost a Cylinder on the Yami yesterday while 10 miles from the dock. Made it back OK. Pulling this AM. We'll see what my mechanic finds.
Hopefully just a bad plug or plug wire. |
Geees, good luck with it Paul
|
probably a coil...most of the modern stuff have CDM's that combine switch box and coil in one...... this seems to be the year of the ornery outboard... I've had the same motor since 2004... she's been great...only routine maintenance.. which I do faithfully... it's put me through the ringer this season... I've had gaskets dissolve and foul a carb... accelerator pump injectors go bad ( took me forever to figure than one out)... a brand new fuel pump (I put it in this spring)go bad/be defective and a few other miscreant problems... more than once limiting where I could fish...it's running great now....just in time to put it away until salmon season in the spring...
Hope you get it running soon.. you guy's still have some season left to fish...it's just about done here for consistent /reliable fishing.. |
You were considering selling it last spring, and this is the payback you get for keeping it!? Better get that looked at so we can fish next year.

Have the injectors tested and cleaned at the same time plus all new fuel filters.... Dr. Gup :-) |
Ya, just spoke to a friend who does this stuff for a living and he said the same thing. I've decided that I am pulling either tomorrow or Monday and taking it to my Yami dealer who has worked on this motor as long as I have owned it.
|
Big thank you goes out to The Buzzman and Ryan F for more help than you can imagine.
I'll have this issue resolved, one way or the other on Tuesday afternoon. |
glad you are on the right track...
|
Thanks Joe. Think we will get it right tomorrow.

OK, boat is pulled and home in its house.
Steve Gunther came to the marina and the results are fuel pump, 2 injectors and probably the vst. He's gonna work on it at my house Sunday but I am done for the season. |
NEW ONE /NEW ONE 150hp

Great guy Phil. Extremely knowledgeable, dependable and reasonable pricing considering he came onsite. I will use him as long as I have a boat.
