    Twin BF225's are for sale

    I have been having a lot of trouble out of one of my motors and it looks like it needs a whole new top end. One runs perfect and the other not so much. About 1450 hrs on both. Compression is 185 in all cylinders except one with 160 and the other 210. The Problem motor does run. If anyone is...

    BF 225 Fuel Flow Issues

    So I was out 27 miles fishing on Friday and had no issues other than I would have to trim one motor up to get up to 4000 rpms. Came in and replaced the spin on racor filter. Pumped the bulb, cranked it up and let it idle for about 10 min to purge the fuel lines. Come back an hour later to...

    BF225 Issue

    I'm thinking its fuel pump related. Replaced filters, sparkplugs, charged batteries. Runs all the way up in neutral with no skipping, except for the 30 seconds or so in the second video. Any ideas? Thank for any suggestions!! https://youtu.be/fk7QsNjyFtk https://youtu.be/OmjY5ZgYO8k

    Throttle & Gear Cable Replacement Question

    I'm going to replace my cables this winter. Are the parts that have a number in (xx) the length? I have a Worldcat 266 with twin BF225's and there are many cables that will fit my motors, just not sure which ones are the correct length. The ones that will be replaced are looped 2x over a foot...

    SB #56 & #40 Email Request for BF225's

    Since it is time for winter maintenance, there are a few things that I want to do or make sure they have been done to my motors in addition to the regular stuff. I spent last winter working the fuel system gremlins out of my 2003 BF225's and after running all day last summer, I would get carbon...

    BF225 Pause Issue

    One of my motors started doing something funny yesterday. I can run for a while and the motor loses power briefly but the RPMs stay constant. It actually feels like the motor pauses or drags for half a second. It will tilt up a little too when it pauses from the water pushing against the...

    BF225 Ignition Switch New vs Old Help

    This is for 2003 BF225A3 XA & BF225A3 XCA One of my ignition switches is bad and when I ordered the replacement part, 35100-ZV5-003, the wires that connect to the harness are completely different. Do I need a different ignition switch or can I splice/solder the old wire plugs onto the new...

    Filling the VST with fuel after cleaning or replacing

    Is it best to just pump the bulb for a while, or can you prime it with the bulb and then turn the motor over without the kill switch engaged to allow the LP pump to do the work? Obviously, I don't want the HP fuel pump running dry. Maybe pull the HP FP fuse? What is the best way to prime the...

    Does anyone know the part number for the seal between the Coil Tube and Valve Cover? I am assuming there is one there, but I have not pulled the valve cover off yet. I have oil in #6 Tube. Thanks, ByrdmanFL
