I have never seen a real racor have a problem with the drain valve. The Sierra copies have all kinds of problems. The true part number for what you need is b32013. The element lasts about 2 years without a flaw. The bowl is reusable. My bottom half is about 7 years old and still working great. I...

That’s awesome. I’ve been working in lake Keowee and lake jacossee in Seneca, sc this past week. They had a great parade last weekend also. Glad to see the flags everywhere.

Did you change the plastic housing, cup, plate etc or just the impeller?

That would be the water pump if it is getting hot.

Maybe plug the laptop into an inverter. Not sure if it will work. There is no low idle alarm. It is either oil pressure or overheating.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/272277218057 This kit would be beneficial to anyone with a Yamaha 4 stroke motor. I use it all the time to monitor engine sensors, codes, alarms etc. It is very user friendly and cheaper than you would think.

I have one like that. I wrapped the rail 3 or 4 times with white electrical tape (3m 88) and clamped it. Then trimmed the tape to look nice. Worked well.

I know they are expensive. The 2 Orange posts are the ones that create the electricity to charge the battery and the many brown posts create the electricity for the ignition coils. New was the correct choice.

RF is complicated. I try to keep the best antenna I can get within reason in my price range in good condition and a good quality radio. I need to be able to talk to my buddys while tooling around the gulf, Atlantic, or the Bahamas. Calling for help is important if I need it also. Lol.

Totally agree. I’ve seen some of those chargers do more damage than good.

One clue to the cause could be the primer balls collapsing at high speed or not expanding right away when pumping. Yamaha had a problem with the lp pumps with clear tabs coming out the top. If it is black, they are the replacements. I would still replace them. another thought, how is the...

Is it possible that the water could have leaked around the roof where the gage panel is mounted? Never the less, that should be the dealer’s responsibility to find the leak and fix it. I was a warranty tech for marine max for 2 years and that is the type of situations I would handle as a...

I would be calling the dealer for a warranty claim. I’m sure you paid a pretty penny for the boat and that is something they should gladly take care of.

I’ve seen that at least a hundred times. Lol. It’s like you plugged your hose with Saran Wrap. I’ve also seen the hose pinched where the cowling cable clamp clamps. The grey Yamaha hose turns to jelly and collapses under suction from the fuel pump. Then it expands again when you pump the ball.

Oem Omc fuel hose is like insurance that your hose will give you no problems for 10 years plus. Even exposed to south Florida sun. It is about 8 bucks a foot but it will outlast all other hose. I buy it by the 25 ft roll for customers that don’t want future problems with their fuel lines.

I’ve never studied the mechanics of the vhf but I do have Thousands of miles of offshore hands on experience. I have a lot of buddy’s that are offshore guides. I took their recommendations years ago to get the best range for my radio. They say to get a radio with a quality final amp for...

I do have a quality icom radio and a Shakespeare galaxy 5225XT model. When I fish 70 miles off the coast, I need all the range I can get.

I use a 6db antenna 8 ft on my hard top. I get a 45 mile average range. One important thing is not to cut any of the wire that comes on the new antenna. It uses every inch of the wire to help the range. Just coil it up and store it under the dash if there is extra.
