    2002 BF225A chokes over 4000 rpm after several hrs of running

    While you have the Vst out pull the high pressure pump and check the screen in the insulator, they clog easily. Unless it's brand new you'll break the plastic insulator when you remove it so have a new one ready.

    2002 BF225A chokes over 4000 rpm after several hrs of running

    I have an 04' 225 for 22 years, no ecm issues. The only regular issues with that generation of V6 are 02 sensor, vertical shaft bushing, crankshaft thrust bearings and corrosion issues. An o2 sensor issue will trigger an intermittent alarm after idling for a few minutes. o2 sensor only affects...

    2002 BF225A chokes over 4000 rpm after several hrs of running

    When you had the VST apart, what did the screen in the insulator look like. The high pressure pump pulls fuel through it and it clogs easily.

    Honda BF150 erratic running at high RPM

    Your on the right track of it being a fuel supply issue. Watching a fuel pressure gauge when it acts up would be helpful. Running it off a seperate portable fuel tank with its own dedicated fuel line directly to the engine could rule out a lot of upstream issues. The o2 sensor and IAC don't...

    2003 Honda 225 false overheat alarm?

    When I was replacing the t-stats on my Honda 225 I noticed Amazon had stats advertised as Honda OEM but they looked different, they were half the price of OEM. I got OEM one's from Boats.net, You need to be careful with critical parts, people play fast and loose with the OEM claim.

    Honda BF225a Corrosion Question

    They do get rust on the engine, it looks worse than it is. When I replaced the power head on a 04' 225 hp I wire brushed all the rusty nuts, bolts and brackets etc. I treated everything with OSPHO rust converter and painted with Honda gray engine paint. I spray the engine with Bosheild T-9 every...

    2005 BF200 Error code 26 oil pressure sensor high side

    The sensors are behind the intake manifold which is behind the plastic air intake manifold between the cylinder heads. The intake manifold is bolted to studs in the heads, it might be possible to remove the intake from the heads but it would take custom tools to do it. Its easier to remove the...

    225 Honda hp fuel pump insulator removal

    What Chawk said, I use needle nose to pull out in small pieces. Check the screen at the bottom of the insulator, if there is debris in it that will starve the engine of fuel at higher RPM.

    A Spare BF225

    2006+ lower units have a different shift shaft, you could probably cut your shaft and weld the end to a 2006+ shaft to make it work.
