- I recently bought a small 8hp 2 stroke Yamaha outboard motor. This is a 2000 model year short shaft tiller engine. I purchased the engine in "unknown" condition - turned out to be a nice little engine!
I just one of these for free from my uncle, has about 20 hours on it, got serviced 10 years ago and has been idle since, going to try start it tomorrow 😁
Good deal for a yammy ! The 9.9 and 15s go for 1000-1500 easy and their light . I had a 70hp yammy same era loved it !
The older 2 stroke Yamaha's are hard to beat. My favorite outboards as you can probably tell!
Iv a Yamaha 70,2t 1986 n she is bulletproof!
Man, you scored on that one. But seeing that water pump like that is making me want to change mine out before getting it running again. Mine hasn't run in about 15 years now if I remember correctly.
Thank you! It's crazy how much of a difference a new water pump will make. To be honest I probably should have checked the water pump before attempting to start this engine. I wouldn't want to cause more issues by clogging the water passageways with pieces of the old impeller. Luckily these older motors are super easy to work on at home.
The water pump was or was the impeller cuz mine barley pumped water and i only replaced impeller but ive had snow come thru so i can restart it yet
Did this thing blow apart yet rod knocking sounds like crap
If this motor for sale let me know the price
I'm planning on keeping this one and looking for a small jon boat for it!
The connecting rod does not sound good
😳Yikes, seems to be running well now but I'll update the post if anything happens as I am planning on keeping this engine!
