New Yami 60HP 4S EFI - FLushing

[Splash]

can someone confirm if the tiller 60HP Yami has an audiable alarm? If so, where is it located?

I have checked underneath the tiller arm and do not see any plastic piece...

They say take the "keys" out of the ignition and
remove the safety lanyard"
when you use the top flushing port

Or you can "run" the engine on earmuffs?
Mines a 2007 90 hp 2 stroke Yamaha?
that's in the operators manual.

Mines a 2003 Yamaha 60 4S. Always flushed it with muffs only. No probs here and a dozen or more flushes have been skipped between trips.

I'm more worried about the trim and tilt pump motor on the engine that is covered in rust and looks like it will bust sometime soon.

Check the price of that motor and it is well worth the weekend cleaning it up and epoxy painting it to protect it. The price will scare the hell out of you

I bought a collapsible flush bag from BuggersCantFish and unfortunately the thing is too small. I was considering getting the larger one but thought of the water usage so went mid sized.... 115 liters but it is too small for the 115 HP Yammie 2 stroke.

Has anyone ever used the BCF bigger bag on 115 sized motors or upwards?

Walrus,

When you have an opertunity take the engine cowling off and run the engine on the muffs, at the top of each cylinder head towards the rear of the engine will be a cover plate with 4 bolts in it (each side) this is where your thermostats are housed... after 5 mins of iodling these should be warming up if they are not then you most likely have thermostats which are jammed open not allowing the engine to warm up... if this is the case get the thermostats serviced

Your tell tail is being fed water from the supply side of the cylinder block and should never be hot

Sorry to drag up old thread but just wanted to check.... SK is this the thermostat housing?

They heat up pretty quick for mine when on the muffs.

Yes , thats one of them. The yamaha thermostats have the temperature marked on them. My 115 2 stroke (using a heat gun ) takes approx 60 seconds to reach full temperature (50°). The thermostat only lets more through. Behind the thermostat in the head is a hole that lets a constant stream of water through, with the thermostat just trimming the extra water needed.

The pink wire you see just to your right is the overheat alarm sensor. You can unplug that one to test it. I put mine in water and heated it up, the alarm goes off at 85°.

Thanks. That's good to know.
