    Oh boy - another of my tachometer questions!

    As mentioned in a post about a week ago, I won the auction for a Yamaha tachometer - 6y5-8350t-91. You folks were kind enough to let me know that with some proper cabling, it could be adapter to work on my 2004 F60. Well, i received the tachometer today. In the box was part number...

    Service manual advice needed

    Hi there. I am the new owner of a 2004 F60TLRC outboard. Got it because the two bolts that hold the lower engine case to the steering column broke. They are item 11 in the schematic at http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Yamaha/Outboard/2004/F60TLRC/BRACKET%202/parts.html . So, while there's a...

    Flush port - part number needed

    I have a BF30 2001 short shaft. I need the part number for the bolt that goes into the flush port. I have the flushing apparatus - but doesn't work well on the water!! I know it's a M8 with a 1.25 pitch thread. If someone could tell me how long the bolt is (schematic would help but can't see...

    Water pump impeller kit OR pump impeller kit

    Hi folks, I'm getting no water out of my telltale - so I'm suspecting issues with water pump. I don't have a history with this outboard (Honda 30 2001 SS), so I'm sure the impeller is dried out/damaged/etc. So, I'm planning to order a replacement kit. I think Hondadude mentioned it best to...

    Tiller reassembly - grip now slips

    Hi all, I'm in the process of rebuilding a Honda 30HP SS 2001 outboard. I reconnected the throttle cables - and I know I have them in the right position. When I turn toward fast, the throttle linkages move properly, but as I move towards WOT, the shaft turns - but the throttle stops moving...

    Torque value needed - base engine to lower engine cover

    I have a 2001 Honda 30 HP BF30 engine. My Chilton's manual states 29 ft-lbs (39 n-m) for the 8 bolts that hold the engine to the lower engine cover base. It feels pretty tight to me - and while I did manage to get 6 of them to that value - I was scared doing so as it felt too much. Of course...

    Honda 30 versus 25 - how achieved?

    The Honda 30 and 25 both have the same block (2001 model). How do they achieve the extra 5HP? Is it carburetion? Is there a different stroke (bore must be the same to use the same block). I'm looking to use a 25HP block to replace my 30 - but want to keep the extra 5HP. Thanks, Chuck

    Honda block and head resurfacing

    I couldn't find anything when I did a search. It's clear that the Honda piston comes high up the into the cylinder - and there's relief for the valves cut into the piston. My question, how far can the head and block be cut down when resurfacing? Is there a shim kit available to maintain...

    Block and head repair

    Hi folks, I've come upon a 30HP Honda that had a failure in the block of the engine. In a nutshell, the wall between the exhaust chamber and the water jacket corroded through. It doing so, the head was also damaged in the same area. The head has had a bead of aluminum that has restored the...
