    Fuel Sending Unit

    Have a 1995 262 Chase. Fuel gage quit working. Removed fuel sensor and made sure electrical connections were OK and that float ball was free. What is best way to check if guage is bad or if sending unit is bad? :?:

    fuel gauge

    The fuel gauge on my 17.5 spirit seems to be stuck reading four bars. ANyone have any experience with this? I'm wondering if there is a reset or if it can be unhooked and then reconnnected. If something is bad is there a way to tell if it's the sender in the tank or the guage on the counsel??

    Props for 265 with 225 4 strokes

    I had the same issue with my guage, said I burned 138 on a trip and I only got a total of 118 back in, I was told you can calibrate it, but have not figured out how to yet. Your fuel burn seems awesome, I ran 287 miles last weekend and burned 201 gal, but we ran out in a nasty chop and the fuel...

    Engine not getting fuel?

    ...switched to E10 fuel and I was planning to use most (if not all) of the MBTE fuel left in my 82 gallon tank before refilling. Since my fuel guage shows "out of fuel" with about 20 gallons left in the tank, I planned to use the boat for 2-3 hours and had an emergency 5 gallon supply on board...

    twin engines, dual fuel tanks - how do you like to use them?

    There si a reason they are not the same size tank, not ment to be run simulataneously by design. This does not mean it cannot be done, but most boats ride better off a particular tank then another, so for distance you want to burn the tank off that has a worse effect on economy or ride first...

    Fuel Capacity

    Fuel Guages Sounds like the guage may be singing its swan song. Mine works as soon as the key is turned. Just a thought. Don't make the same mistake I did and overpay for the ISSPRO line that GW put in the boat at the time of manufacture. There's another brand, I believe Wema or...

    Port Engine Wont Start

    Hi guys , need some help from the mechanically minded, Yamaha expert. Went to fire up the engines this morning. I have had some problems with the batteries going flat for which I can only maybe relate to the carbon monoxide alarm which beeps for no reason? Charger has been on. The S/board...

    What HP would you RePower 99 209 Escape?

    Thats kinda how I got mine... Dealer had it as an 07 leftover in 08, plus Evinrude was having the 5 year warranty and cash back promo. Got the motor, new hydrualic steering, guage pack, etc for an AWESOME price (plug for Barnacle Bill's Marine in Southeast NJ)... As with any older boat...

    Dealer Plug

    ...much fuel I had remaining. Yesterday, unsolicited, I received a call that they were going to be coming by to replace it, and was that ok with me? So they replaced it. My fuel guage works again. ...and most importantly, I did not need to harass anyone to get it taken care of. Terrific!

    Removing Fuel From a 2002 Escape 209

    You are correct but there can be a catch. Depending on the tank desigh=n and the angle of the boat, a partially filled tank can still read full on the guage since the fuel is shifted to the back. You have to unload enougt fuel to be sure that when you remove the sender cover, fuel doesn't flow out

    fuel management gauger

    With twins you ALWAYS get the fuel management, it is not an option from Yamaha so if you do not have it they messed up somewhere. It was only optional for single applications. It should say fuel mangement on the guage somwhere and you should be able to toggle the sceen for more information...

    Fuel Fill Issues on 265

    Well we filled the tanks a little more then 7/8 for the winter and put stabilizer and such in. As soon as she splashes I'm going to top her off as high as I can and run both tanks really low and keep track of my burn to see if it is the guage that is off or a blockage in the fill line or vent...

    Fuel Monitoring System: Northstar vs Floscan

    I installed a 210 last season. It was fairly easy to install and seems to work well. I'm not anal about actual mileage. I just wanted to get an idea. I am using it more as an accuate fuel guage. No complaints here. It was well worth the $100 I spent. David

    My MPG readout does not work-Yamaha FMS

    Gary, Are you reading speed on your yamaha guages -- not the gps but the yamaha guage. There is a tiny hole in the bullet of your ox-66's, you obviously have twins so only one motor will be provide the info. You'll have to pull the cover and look for which motor has the tube that runs to your...

    Battery issues...

    ...number 1. My shore power cord pulled out of the socket last week during a storm and I believe a switch inadvertantly left on at the helm (fuel guage switch) killed all three batts over a two week period. I reattched the the shore power cord and let the batts charge for a week. When I got to...

    Fuel Fill Issues on 265

    My guages read perfectly and I have checked my fuel management agianst actual usage by refilling after and it is always within a gal or two. I know it was not full because my tank said I was on 1/3 when I fueled, so about 40gal and I added only 26 since that is all it allowed. That put me just...

    top speed for a 2004 330 Express

    I recently bought a 2004 330 Express with twin F225's. Best top speed I have seen is 37 MPH (GPS speed) with both engines running at 5700 RPM. Both GW and yamaha have published numbers saying I should see 41-42 MPH at 6100 RPM. Here are the variables - let me know if I missed any Boat...
