I've always liked Yamaha stuff and agree that it's always a good mix of reliability and performance. They are never the most powerful but they are always close and way more reliable

Had a Yammie 4-stroke for 16 years. Never had a single issue with that engine. Changed the engine oil and lower unit once a year and sparks plugs every other year. That was it. Smooth and reliable.

I had a HPDI Woody Woodpecker 200 in 2002 I think and had some issues that were resolved by Yamaha. Then a 150 2 stroke on a 2007 Ranger 617. Then 2009 Four Stroke 225 which was awesome !

The Ugly. 2017 f150 with 800 hrs corroded a hole through exhaust guide plate. A known issue that yamaha have admitted to behind closed doors but will not take any acountability for when asked publicly instead blaming on over propping.

LIKED RIGHT OFF THE BAT, I ALREADY KNOW IT'S FIRE!

Awesome video Andy! Yamaha for life!!!!

Dad bought a new Ranger 692 Fisherman with a 150 Yamaha ProV and on the opening day morning the lower unit chewed itself up. First time I ever saw tears in my dad’s eyes. Took it to a dealer in I’Falls. Yamaha redeemed itself, put a new lower unit on an airplane on Sunday, installed Monday morning and back on the water that afternoon. 29 years later not a single issue. Had a F115 on my first boat, 1850 Fish Hawk, ran perfect for the 19 seasons I had it, never choked it to start, always started after 4-5 cranks even first time out each season.

Thumbs up for 2000's Yamaha Snowmobiles! #savethetriples

I love my Yamaha I bought it with a 16 foot Fishermarine aluminum boat. The engine is a 1986 30hp I bought new in 1986 in a boat package deal. I've kept up the maintenance on it my self. I'm a retired truck mechanic and it's so easy to work on. Changing the water pump is supper easy. I enjoy watching your videos keep them coming. 😁👍

Great stuff guys! Just ordered my shirt and hoodie!

Your story about your dad in that boat is awesome. It’s just like my Dad. I think there is an age you get to that you unlock that ability. I’m looking forward to that outlook.

The Yamaha V4 2 stroke tuning potential is simply jaw dropping.

My F70 Yamy has been absolutely KILLER on my 1988 15 Boston Whaler ! Unreal mileage too !

Great video Andy.

I love my Yamaha guitars!

The only Yamaha I've ever owned was a YZ125 Dirt bike. Loved it. As far as outboards go, Johnson/Evinrude and Mercury are the only ones I've ever owned. However, my uncle had a Ranger w/ a 150 ProV Yamaha HPDI. The thing that stood out to me was both the throttle response and overall smoothness throughout the entire rev range. Again, the throttle response was absolutely neck snapping.

Yamaha bad/ugly is the 350V8

My 2018 has never had a problem, has had the NizPro 332hp tune and now she’s a monster, used every weekend.

Little 3hp 2 stroke here. Late ‘80s or early ‘90s. Super reliable as long as you don’t let it sit unused too long. Pilot jets are just so small and too easily plugged and will muck with the idle. Beats the heck out of paddling, lol.

The yama-HAMMA! Totally abused a 2007 25 2 stroke on the river, broke the exhaust housing multiple times but the lower unit survived(Rockhopper FTW). Luckily they are easy to work on, replaced with a housing from an 1989 model, she's still rippin around hitting logs and rocks. Have had two precision blend 70's and they were tough as well.

With the making oil issue...Only thing that has solved the issue in canada , since our waters are cooler ,is installing suzuki 250 ss thermostats as they have the standard thermostat and a optional hotter heat range to choose from.They fit exactly to fit...👍

I have owned three Yamaha outboards. My first Yamaha was a 40hp Mariner, made by Yamaha. Then, a Yamaha C60. Currently, I own a 2020 year model 4.2l SHO. Always had good reliability.

I love my sho. Super quite and fuel efficient. Runs the exact same full load or empty boat and teaspoon of gas. And they look bad ass in my opinion

Ya, Yamaha is so great looking, a big gray box! Ya the SHO is ok but the rest are big gray boxes for 30 yrs!! Really pretty!! Lol

I have had a yamaha v150tlr for 10 years and still runs strong.

The first yammy sho I ever had made oil. The only way to fix it, that we found, was to put in on a big lake and run from one end to the other as fast as it will go. When that engine got nice and hot it seated the rings and never made a drop of oil to the day we sold it

One area not mentioned on the Yamaha's which is ashame was a major issue was the exhaust corrosion for the F225's, some F250's. Lots of customers having to each new powerheads and Yamaha not making good on replacements for the factory defect. They did I hear eventually offer discounted parts, but still in the several thousand $$ range to fix them.

If you mixed Yamahas’s customer support & quality with Mercury’s performance/props and Suzuki’s looks you’d have the ultimate outboard

New v6’s make oil from gas by passing the rings. From what I was told by my local Yamaha mechanic was to trim the engine down and run it hard. Will help seat the rings quicker.

You have to break them in correctly to get the rings seated so you don't get blow by of unburnt fuel i.e. oil making.

We have two Yamaha pwc 4 stroke. One NA one supercharged. They are so dang smooth!

The SHO is bullet proof in my experience. I own a 2010 SHO & have never had an issue. Easy self maintenance for engine oil, filter & gear oil. Trading it in next week & got a great trade-in value. Getting a new 250 SHO on my new Caymas CX21. Great engine in my opinion!

What we do with the SHO‘s it’s all about heat and running the living crap out of them. If they were not run hard out of the box you’ve got to deglaze the cylinders and we use Yamaha internal engine cleaner procedure, double up on ring free, then back to lake for 30 plus miles of wide open without any breaks. Doing that will set the rings on 90+ percent of them in our area.

If it makes oil it was either not broken in correctly or it is idling toooo long, check the downloads they will tell you everything. 4.2 use plasma honed cylinder walls. Do the break in exactly as Yamaha says to do is critical for proper ring seating. Things I've learned in my last 2 years taking classes at Yamaha Marine University.

I fixed mine from making oil by switching to conventional oil, change it at 50hrs now, I change the thermostat every 100 hours, and i clean the pressure control valve every time I change the oil. The oil was the biggest help. Mine made oil since I first bought it.

Looking to upgrade to a yamaha 4 stroke on my offshore🤘

On oil dilution: Improper break-in, excessive idling, too low octane fuel are the main causes. There’s a handful of maintenance due issues that can make the symptoms worse as well. Most of the original list can be resolved with YIEC, and a couple hours hard running. On the maintenance side, a pair of thermostats and regular usage of Ring Free and conditioner usually resolves it.

What is yeic?

I have a 2021 VF90 SHO that I ordered in June of 2020 and received inAugust of ‘20 I have 164 hours on it. It does not make oil. I heard that a proper, hard break-in was the deal, so I did that. I have it on a Lund 1875 Proguide tiller. I get 40mph at 6k rpm. I’m running a Powertech PTR 17p.

I am purchasing a 175sho after just blowing up my merc at 900hrs . I was scared to watch because i didn't wana find out the Yamaha is a pile but i feel even better purchasing it now . Thanks for the knowledge.

Yam mechanic here, from what I've been told here the oil making is a result of people over filling because Yams are a little difficult to get an accurate level reading or it's being over loaded and run to hard. I would add as a bad that the mid 2000s 150s had balancer issues and even tho they have fixed the balancer if the engine over heats a little or the prop is hit the balancer can come apart. If that happens and not caught in time your engine is dead.

Here is what i was told about making oil. My dealer told me the rings weren't seated correctly, mind you i bought a boat with 250 hours on it. My dealer cleaned the motor, I wish I could remember the process they did. However, when i got the boat back his exact words were run your boat wide open 6.000 rpms for an hour. I ran 35 minutes down the river, turned around and ran back another 40 minutes and have not had an issue since. I was told Yamaha's do not like all the Idling and need to be ran like a scalded dog now and then.

Tried to catch you guys while I was up there for the Elite tournament but wasn't able to make the time. Would have loved to see where the magic is made lol

To my understanding the oil making issue is due to the rings not seating well because of easy running during break in. Have heard if you run them WOT for a considerable amount of time even after break in the rings will seat correctly and quit letting the fuel bypass the rings and “make oil”.

as a yamaha dealer lots of bad ugly on the new stuff. 425hp fowling plugs and exhausts rotting out with very low hours and not over loaded. 4.2L needs another gear ratio having to run very small props to get them to reach revs.

IMO the "making oil" deal with the Yamahas is primarily from the plasma cylinder bore liners. Some of the auto makers do that to their engines and a lot of them have oil consumption or dilution issues. Just hard to beat an iron bore for oil retention and ring sealing.

Plasma bore has been around 3 decades, and outboards have been bare cast aluminum for what 75 years now. Making oil by not sealing rings is more to improper break in. Iron blocks have same issue.

@@omieyouknowme A few outboards have been using plasma cylinder liners for a little over a decade. Yamaha uses it on their 4.2l V6. A cylinder plating like nikasil is not the same material or process. Cylinder bores are not left plain ole cast aluminum. The automotive industry has been using the plasma cylinder lining process much longer and on more engines that the outboard industry. There is a reason why a lot of those blocks are bored out and iron sleeves installed even if the bore is within spec. A cast iron bore just holds oil better and seals better. The whole improper break in thing is BS. You can break the motor in perfectly and still have problems with making oil. Outboards tend to have a lot of extended low rpm time and 4 strokes are not the best at that application. The smooth hard non porous plasma spray transfer lining just makes it worse.

All where bare aluminum with no sleeve. What did they do back in those days. Or was it because they where two strokes the oil mixture in combination with low compression did not matter. I'm aware of the alum cylinders being coated, bmw had a lot issues with theirs early in in 90's as I'm sure other makes too. It's one thing to build an engine in car that rarely sees 5500 rpm for extended runs vs an outboard. I guess I have never had to deal with one with bad rings. Head gaskets mostly

The SHO’s that make oil are the engines that were not broke in correctly. If the engine is not broke in by taking it out, running a full tank of gas through it. And not by running it for 20 minutes to the next spot. The only way a 4 stroke can make oil is because the rings aren’t seated right, they need to get it hot enough to seat. In break in you need to load the boat down, trim all the way down, make it work. There ya go 🙂

I bought a brand new 250 sho in 2014. I had the making oil issues during my break In process and I followed the break in to the T. I always check the oil on my motors so after 1st day on the water I check the dipstick and it was a good inch over the top mark. I call the dealer they tell me to bring it in and all they did was drain the level to where it’s supposed to be which had me worried. I proceeded to break in the boat and after 10 hrs I still had the issue. I called Yamaha they told me to change the oil and switch to their full synthetic and run the piss out of the motor for a day and to let them know the results.changed the oil myself And I mean I ran it like a stole it. Since then I’ve never had a problem with the motor I still run it today it has over 620 hrs on it best motor I’ve ever owned by a mile. I never made past 250 hrs on a mercury without something breaking

The swag will be here for Christmas....tshirts,etc. YAMAHA is a good product...my 2010 gets me out and back everytime

I read a fuck ton of threads on bass boat central and others and my conclusions on "making oil" is after the first 2 couple of hours on break in procedure to drive it a little harder than the book says. My f150 yamaha had 20 hours on it when I purchased an xpress demo boat. Got home, pulled the dipstick.and thought my gas tank.just vented. Oil was in the full hole so not overfilled but Damm close. After reading upon this I drove it like I stole it and hasn't made oil since. Winter time graphing for hours isn't good for the Makimg oil issue. Also sent my oil off to Blackstone labs for analysis. This was after an oil change but still Making a little and it n was in tolerance for gas to oil ratio. This may help and it may not but those 2 cents was free

Wouldn't be surprised if you had to replace the piston rings to stop the making oil issue. Seems to be a ring seat issue, only way it's making oil is unburned fuel getting by the rings.
