Если распредвалы у него такие же, как на ф115-130 сил,и нет задушающего рестриктора на всасывающем диффузоре, то можешь прокачать свой мотор путëм перепрошивки эбу, либо замены эбу на другое от ф130. Про распредвалы можно посмотреть по каталогу запчастей, если номера совпадают, значит распредвалы одинаковые.Привет из России!

@SWCFLORIDA

Ай бұрын

The water separator filter. Yes

Also have to ask- do you drain your oil each time or have you ever extracted it? There’s so many folks to tell me to not touch my drain bolt (I’ve done 3 change so far) and said overtime no matter how careful you are with torquing, it’ll eventually strip. I know manual says you can do either or, but torn on how to go about it in the future and if I have to worry. Thanks!

@SWCFLORIDA

8 ай бұрын

I have never vaccumed one out ..I know it’s done a lot though…My years wrenching on many different boats I have never run into a stripped oil bolt. Sure it happens. As long as your getting all the oil out it should be fine. In my opinion

Forgot to ask! When you tighten the 6 bolts on the lower unit (the ones visible), do those have a specified torque and do you just tighten enough like an oil drain bolt? Just prepping to do mine!

@SWCFLORIDA

7 ай бұрын

I’m sure they have a specific torque. I just do it by feel.

I'm installing a Yamaha hour meter in this very engine. The plug wires are obviously different than what I'm used to, and they seem to all be tied into one bundle. I'm assuming I wrap the meter lead wire around the single bundle? Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Разница в заложенной программе в эбу и по " железу "-- распредвалы и всасывающий диффузор может быть разным диаметром. Отличие в 10 лошадиных сил по факту у шо в макс 90-115-150-175, и 25 сил у шо в макс 200-225-250 от "простых" версий плм. Так же по налогам есть плюс, берëшь мотор меньшей мощности, например шо в макс VF 150 и перепрошиваешь ему эбу на 200 сил( либо покупаешь эбу от ф200, переставляешь его на вф150 ) и получаешь 200 лошадей в итоге.Привет из России!

Sorry but I have to ask. When you unscrewed the gas filter assembly and replaced the fuel filter, why didn't you dump the contents of the fuel filter assembly ?? There would be crap that was filtered and still in there and the o-ring ?? Wouldn't you put a new one??

@SWCFLORIDA
