Grumpy old man diagnoses two stroke outboard run without oil in fuel

  • In this video I teardown the Yamaha 30HP two stroke outboard motor that had both sunk and been run without oil in the fuel. The ultimate failure was the lower main bearing most likely due to salt water sitting in the bottom of the crankcase after the sinking. Running without oil turned out to be the final straw for the poor outboard but it looks like it can be fixed.

    I forgot how much I missed old skool stu....the dodgey tools, the thrills, the chills, all the ups and downs. I like the renko stuff, but getting back to the roots once in a while is excellent.
    Thank you for service to the world. I never would have bought a boat if it wasn't for you. I still pop back and rewatch videos when i'm having outboard issues, and recommend them to people alot.

Probably the best video he's made. LOVE the way he nonchalantly tosses tools and parts as he dismantles this engine. And to have the "Can Do" attitude when creating his own tools to get the job done - True Dangar Island style. Keep it up!!

Clean your bench, stop throwing the tools, put the parts into a tub or in order, stop throwing the screws anywhere... oh those safety glasses!! maybe you should clean some of those leaves of the roof so it doesn't rust out on you, plus it is a little bit of a fire hazard. Love ya work :-) keep at it..

    Just waiting for that metal to snatch. Amazing how outboard can be written off yet all the bolts come out without snapping off. I’ve never seen you tackle a rotter when half the bolts snap off. Glad to see you back on an outboard and your creative work bench is just like mine 👍👍👍👍

    There are some great videos on CZcams and most of them are yours Stu. However, occasionally one comes along which shines above the rest. This, for me, is one of those.
    Your charisma, your humour and, not least your endless deep knowledge of all things marine, especially outboards (which is such a help to so many of us) plus your ability to make my exercise routine go quickly (not to mention it's just the right length) are such a boon; especially in these times.
    Finally, your "can do", innovative approach is not only refreshing but inspiring.
    Thanks Stu!

      People buy a boat and discover that the family doesn't like it, that it costs more than they can afford (but won't admit it), or work too many hours, or they or a family member gets sick-- at least an outboard is an inanimate object, unlike a horse or a pet . . .
