    2005 Yamaha F150TXRD has high idle

    Completely frustrated trying to deal with adjusting the idle on my 2005 Yamaha F150…… I have been using YDS program to no avail. It did show four codes….two not recent 13 Pulser coil and 28 shift position switch. Two are recent 29 Intake pressure sensor and 18 Throttle position sensor. When I...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Well, for those who have followed this saga…..I can share some great information. Completed 4 hr CLR flush and then flushed with clear water. Little to no sediment noted in tub. Freshwater motor is a good thing. Reassembled lower unit (with completely rebuilt water pump) onto motor. Flushed...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Well, I do have additional findings to share. I ‘mostly’ blocked off the midsection exhaust cavity with a couple of rags and blocked any retrograde flow through intake tube with my finger. Lo and behold…..it peed! I feel it is safe to conclude that internal passages are open and IF...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    My theory might not pan out….. Decided to test more before reinstalling lower unit. Removed Tstat and flushed through port while blocking open end of intake tube. Water poured through exhaust cavity, but still did not pee. Hard to know if the body of lower unit would reduce some of the pressure...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Last sentence is so true! Just for fun, I’ll try to post a picture…. Definitely a rock. The vanes don’t flex at all. Yet its shape still moved water!

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Well, I believe I might have an answer. Pulled the lower unit today and found some significant issues. Still won’t know if they would cause the ‘no peeing on flush port’ until I reassemble tomorrow. Seriously happy I decided to investigate the water pump …..couldn’t believe it was moving water...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Sorry Jgmo…..posted before I saw your reply appear. I hear you on the jacket cover. Lot of work, not to mention a $42 gasket, but certainly worth it if it straightened things out. What I can’t wrap my mind around is that the nipple for telltale tube is low on jacket. If it pees (through that...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    I will note that all the part numbers for water jacket cover, gaskets, thermostat, flush valve, etc, etc. are identical for 1998 and 1999. So what is causing the 1998 not to pee on flush when the 1999 did? Both pee well when running. Would replacing the entire water pump possibly reduce the...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    OK….an update on diagnostic efforts….. I had removed and checked both flush valve and thermostat. Both were very clean. Applied a little o ring lube to flush valve grommet and o rings. Reassembled. Running hose wide open through flush port. Could feel and hear water running. Pouring out intake...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Thank you for the reply! I checked the flush valve and housing this afternoon. Really quite clean. Also checked Tstat. Also clean. Remember, it is a freshwater veteran. Did not test Tstat function …but will replace. Tomorrow I’ll have to try just removing it and replace housing….then see if...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Still seeking clarification…… It seems to come down to water path through the cooling system under two different conditions….running and flushing. When running, water flows from water pump up to thermostat. If thermostat is closed, it flows out exhaust ports and out telltale. If thermostat is...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Yes, it pees well when running ….the concern is it is running in salt water! I want to know that the entire motor is being flushed after use with fresh water when it is appropriately attached to a hose. Isn’t that what the flush port is designed for??? After seeing the video DCV made on his...

    Honda BF90AW Doesn’t Pee With Flush

    Ok…I’m stumped. I now have a 1998 BF90AW that is a freshwater beauty. Bought it to replace my 1999 BF90A that developed water in oil (had been in salt water all its life). Here’s the issue….the new motor pees well when running and intake well submerged at launch. However, it will not pee any...
