If this isn’t the best ad for Yamaha, I don’t know what is
Was this hard to watch for anyone else😭😪
King Junah yes, yes it was 😢
Me too. Sad to see. Atleast sell it and give money for d needy if u dont want it
Sad to see, to much time on their hands, boys, boys
King Junah yeah bro I would use it for my flat
Yes
That poor engine just wants to be your friend I feel so bad for it
😥☹
Thats how i think
Same
Bruh mainly everything has to go through this plus they can be cheap and still run
You just made me sad
Craigslist users be like: Barely used mint condition 3900 obo
ItsSimko this deserves more likes

Whistling Diesel is that you?
How to Honda I was thinking the same thing
Seriously!!
Nah WD is a bigger moron
Its his brother lol
I was thinking the same, he should just change his name to smokin two stroke
Quarantine life is getting to everyone it seems
I’m glad I live in the country imagine being in a patients in cities
Aka the broke life im suprised i still have $ to be on the internet
While watching I kept asking myself why the heck my outboard fails all the time. Maybe I need to set it on fire.
🤣
prolly justa carb clean
I just watched 19 minutes of Florida man getting the job done
CL: Slightly used, always winterized, ready to go! Just don't have time for it anymore.
Living in an area with snakes and spiders I was expecting something to jump out at you when you pulled the blanket off the motors.
what did that yamaha do to you guys
Being a reliable and long lasting motor, smh who wants that? We all want the crappy junk mercs right?
Seth H How many racing records are held by Mercury outboards? Quite a few, and Honda and Yamaha can’t come close. Sure, racing engines don’t last nearly as long. My 2.5l 280hp needs more maintenance than most, but every pass it gets hit with a 300hp shot of nitrous. Now, I do have a 1960’s Merc 60hp that is on my small fishing boat and it has over 7,000 hours, still running strong. Never changed anything but water pumps, spark plugs and once a trim relay. My grandfather used it every day for more than 20 years, then my dad used it for another decade before I got it. I don’t have a problem with any brand of outboard, because I’ve had good luck with all of them. Even Chrysler/Force. Although, I will admit that the Evinrude/Johnson 60-75hp 3 cylinder engines are my favorite for smaller boats.
Adam R yeah but Yamaha isint in the racing industry they are more about reliability, but gee 7000 hours??, wow incredible, we have 4000 hours on our Yamaha, no problems yet! Just like you said spark, impeller, and we do the lower unit oil change every year
Seth H You were the one calling Mercury outboards crap. I’m just pointing out facts that prove otherwise. I’ve seen plenty Honda’s and Yamahas that didn’t make it too 100 hours before having major problems. Everyone turns out a few lemons. Also, some people try to use racing engines on their fishing boats, abusing the engine leading to a short life. Every time you see a big center console boat with 2 to 6 R series outboards on the back, you are looking at a boat where the owner wanted to show off his money, rather than picking an engine that was made for the job. Most of the “bad” engines I’ve seen were abused in such a manner. Weather it be people trying to troll with a racing engine (what kills most big racing Mercs) or trying to treat a lower rpm work engine like a high rpm racing engine (what seems to kill most of the Yami’s and Honda’s) it mainly comes down to people picking the wrong engine for the application.
Adam R yeah, but mercury warranty is 2-3 years, Yamaha 3-6 year warranty, to me that says enough about reliability. racing I’ll gladly give that to mercury, but for me and my little Jon boat I don’t need racing engines and high maintenance motors, just a reliable motor, with my 6 year warranty, but like you said there are cases were mercury would be the better engine, like racing boats
Painful to watch that Yammy get abused so bad, but it showcases how though it really is!
Every Yamaha can pass the test
Boyzs !
@@king579pro7 not the newer ones
I absolutely could use a small engine , me and my 6 year son are building up a jon boat for the st.Johns River.
Watch the end of the video
ThatBoatGuy I did and can’t wait for that video
Man that thing is like a timex its takes a licken and keeps on a ticking
I hope you win it.
Jason Z hope you get it
Man if that doesn’t show how well built and reliable these Yamaha 2-Strokes are, I don’t know what will. That is incredible.
4:42 : the definition of me and the bois
Just started giving my old Yamaha 8B 677 from 1983 some love because i am getting a boat. It has been laying in storage for my entire life that i can remember and fired right up after two pulls, just waiting for some parts to get here.
Pull the head and lets see those cylinder bores.
You’ve really inspired me watching your channel. Can you come out with a list of your favorite motors? In terms of maybe durability, reliability, and bang for your buck? And one on how to detail a motor? I would love to see that and I’m sure others would as well.
That lower unit looks to be in great shape. I will be sure to warm up my 2 stroke that way
Dang that thing has been to help and back and still kicking Dam strong motor
That damn thing sure is tough!! Will be watching for the next video about the Mercury 9.9.
15 with a 9.9 hood hahaha.
Never ever thought it would last the tests ! Overheating it 3 times and hydrolocking it my god there unreal engines !!!
Good on you Eric for giving away an outboard as you dont have to. You have a big heart hope you reach 100k subs mate 👍🇦🇺
@thatboatguy Just bought a 2019 Yamaha F50. Any tips and trix for the engine? Heard u can remove a "plug" in the intake to make it a F60 ? Have ju done it?
Dang I wouldn’t do that to my engine, but I’m sure it’ll hold up just fine. Love my Yamaha, have a 50 hp 2 stroke. Yet to have an issue with it.
At my job over the summer we managed to break 8 different engines in 5 weeks which included a Nissan marine (new), Jhonson (old), Mercury( new-ish), Suzuki (old), Honda(old), Tohatsu (old), another Suzuki(old), and another Tohatsu (brand new).
(None of which were a Yamaha)
how did you manage to do that? run with no oil?
What’s the best fishing pole set up for the Florida intercostal water way? Like bate, line hooks, Lures, Etc.
Cant wait! Love that merc 9.9. Would give me a great excuse to head down to florida and visit the family too.
I have an Yamaha 8hp 2stroke and it refuses to die. Great video
I do love the videos like that I worked on small engines for a while I did launch one a couple times we tried to kill it wide open and it wouldn't die so we drain the oil that was fun
Awesome video.. How durable are the 4stroke 9.9 Yamahas? I just got an 86 running pretty good
Totally down for a new engine!!! Awesome video man.
What smaller engine with controls would you recommend im looking for a 20 to 30hp for my 14ft aluminum boat
And back on Facebook Marketplace it goes...
Exactly. Thats why i only buy new nowadays.
“Runs great! Low hours. Only used once.”
Incomplete test. Needs to be thrown off the Skyway bridge. Then you'd have a test!
FlyMeAirplane no and throw it down the Mariana Trench and let it sit there for 5 years
Providing the best original content as always👌😂
Hello boat guy i have a question. I have a 1989 yamaha pro 50 that will not stay running all fuel components have been replaced with new and carbs rebuilt can ya help
Hey man! Been a fan for a while now. Is there some way to get in touch with you regarding a restoration project we want to do?
I just picked up a 87 Evinrude 2.5 Hp for a small fishing boat. Do you know what oil ratio it is? Also I don’t see a pee hole for water discharge. There is a spot on the lower unit that exhaust comes out it looks like it is kinda misting out of there. Do you know if this is ok? Thanks
There was a great scene in the Movie *The Deep* with 2 guys battling each other using an outboard motor amongst other items.
Missed the part 1 but that engine is really good😄
I have a 1968 9.5 hp evinrude on a 10ft by 4.5ft alluminum boat and will only push it ant 9mph is that abt right or should I be getting more
Hey I was wondering if you could tell me what happened to my Yamaha outboard it goes in forward and neutral fine but when I put it in reverse it makes loud grinding noise and does not go in reverse
I thought this was a click bait, but I was wrong. U didn't disappoint me 😂
Do you sale and ship motors. I need a 25 hp long shaft and I am having a hard time finding one here in Bama. Thanks
I have a 1998 25 2 stroke that has never ever missed a beat. And it hasn’t been serviced religiously either. Absolute tanks.
Appreciate your videos I have learned a ton. Question for you Im wondering if this has ever happened to you. I have 25 hp yamaha. I changed the impeller. Put it back together and when i went to start it thought it was in neutral and it was in Forward. Now its stuck in forward and i can't get the shift rod to go up or down.
Chad Dame, maybe the shifter cable.
You didn’t put it back together properly. Not suppose to be in forward when putting back together
Great video!!! The good ole boys! 🎣. I’m actually going tomorrow to check a used 16ft Jon boat with 2002 a mercury 6hp four stroke and hopefully is in good condition. Anything I should look for on the motor and for the boat? The guy is selling for his dad and he doesn’t know anything about boats and neither do I.
I traded a guy for a 1969 Sears row boat with a 1969 Evinrude. I'm trying to get it ready for the Indian River here in Florida, but I'm not sure when it will be.
what exact model is that boat guy ? and year of make
Got a yamahammer 225 precision blend.. love it
That's awesome. Keep up the good work.
It was Harder to Watch the First time, Now it's just "Wow" Unbelievable!
Can't Wait for Your Next Video!
I Could use That on my 14ft Montgomery Ward Flat Bottom!
That's some ballsy stuff right there man!
That was sick dude!!🤘🤘
Great video’s, I’ve got a 1986 Yamaha 70 just started overheating at low rpms, new impeller and thermostat same issue still. Any ideas?
Scott Souva, I’d say maybe a pipe issue. Maybe a leak. Haven’t had any problems with my inboard and it’s impeller.
You should try running it on straight gas and no premix
@thatboatguy it would be a dream come true if I could get that mercury motor I’ve been trying to get a motor for my boat but I just can’t find a used one that is cheep enough for me. I’m just saying if I get that motor I want you to know it would for sure be put to use because I love fishing I just don’t have a way to get around on the water.
What size boat is that? Length and width?
9:46 brings a new meaning to mud motors lol
Where do you sell you engines?
Nice Video! keep up the good work
Good thing you know how to fix them up!! Great vid It made my day especially that comment about quarantine life getting to everyone lmao!!
Will a 4 stroke of similar size hold up that well?
Can you make a video on how to Convert a small outboard engine from tiller to remote
This it the best Yamaha ad ever. The ultimate torture test
From which year is it?? So that I will not have any problems with them.
Hey got any 9.9 or 10 hp motors I really need one
How much does a lower end gear set run????
I couldn't help but wonder, how far up the beach your Jon Boat would have gone if you had the same coating on the bottom as your Air Boat.
That is one tuff ass little motor holy crap
Hey I have a question. I have a 20hp Mercury 4 stroke and when it is under load, like for example getting on plane or I have 3 people on the boat the motor seems to "skip" like as seen at 17:53 but runs perfectly the rest of the time. Is this normal or do I have an issue?
Top IOS its a 2017 carbureted (not EFI)
Hello friend, I have a 40 yamah 3 cyl 2002, when I turn it on, it accelerates a lot 30 sec, then it remains stable, but doing explorations, they told me that it can be the cdi (it has electronic advance), I await your answer thank you very much, I am from Argentina, your videos are the best :)
love the videos ive got a cv 40 two stroke yamaha love it
“Awe it’s so sad what he did to that motor” at least it’s not whistlin diesel destroying a $100k truck lol
I am looking for a 2010 150 4 stroke fuel injection 25 inch Yamaha can you help me
This Video is pure pain if you would kill for a motor like this haha. Already looking forward for the Mercury giveaway =) keep going on i really love your content
its sad to see the engine but also fun to watch how you test
can't wait the give away video
peace from Malaysia
One of the bottom bolts sheared off while removing the lower unit of my 25 Yamie 2 stroke. Any advice for getting that half a bolt out?
Drill into it
Yeah, I got it that way
thats one tough little motor
I think this engine was not suppose to be treated that way. But happy to know it still working 👍
Please i would like u to talk about HIDEA outboard..its a new name but it seems durable..please do a test
I’m sold I’m a OMC 2 stroke guy, I will be looking for One now
I need that yahama engine in Guyana 🇬🇾...they r very expensive n I cud really use one for wrk related ThatBoatGuy I won't mind pay for shipping...plz reply
Hello
my lights come on, but nothing else. New battery or fully charge battery.
It’s electric, because the motor won’t go up and down or turn over. It’s a 50 hp Yamaha. Any ideas?
Can you make a video with the exhaust plate removed, so we can see the sides of the pistons?
OMG!! I couldn't watch the whole video. I have an 86 15hp like that one. I just bought it and I am strangely reassured by the torture test. Thanks for your videos, they have been much helpful! ..... and entertaining
My water discharge (tell tale) does not work. I have water output to the brass nipple that connects to the tell tale where I believe the exhaust and coolant exit the back of the casting. I have run wires and weed eater cord down the nipple but it seems to bottom out about an inch below the floor. am I probing the right hole? I have never seen one of these engines running.
Keep the info (and the antics) coming.
The neighbors must love you guys. Haha!
Shows how tough they are!!👍👏🤠
I never saw an additional video for the motor giveaway
Is the mercury a 4 stroke
do you have an email or contact number for questions as I am looking at a boat to buy but need some advice?
How durable are the 4 stoke yamahas?
I have an 80s 15hp mariner (yamaha) its piston seized up. I used this motor growing up on a mirrocraft v hull for many many years. Do you have a engine block and pistons that i could use to get it running again? Everything else in mine works.
I brought it out of storage 5 years ago fired right up and thought it was 2 stroke mix i was using.... it was not! Let me know id make a trip over if the price is right.
I live in central florida. East of orlando.
Thanks.
Aren't Mariners made by mercury?
@@abolishguncontrollaws5689
Not the early ones. The later ones were made by mercury.
How does somebody get in touch with you or follow you to see what you’re selling?
Are your motors for sale? I'm looking for a 25 Outboard.
How expensive is to rebuild the cylinders on a Yamaha 99 2 stroke
awesome video man loved it
I'm not convinced yet, I need to buy a 250. Can you redo this test with a Yamaha 250 and 300?
Can you run that on pure acetone to see what happens?
