Yeah I didn't mean buy a brand new engine....just a new to me engine......but after calling every used parts store in the southeast....I finally found a place that had a used unit that he is going to sell me for $100!! It helped when I found out that I could use the same unit from all the 1980s 115s and 130s. Feels like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. Now I just hope the mechanic diagnosed it right and this fixes the issue!!!

Stuarbc,
Maybe I`m shooting from the hip, but a friend told me that some Yamaha`s have failures on a water temp sensor which is mounted on the head/s and causes the motor to not start. That is an easy check, perhaps you could look into that.
I have the OEM service manual for my 98 200 yami and if it could be of any help i can look on it and give you info.

I fooled around with this for an entire year.....trying to convince myself that the CDI was the problem and it was worth buying the part. I finally convinced myself of it and was able to find a company called RepairCDI that manufactures CDIs and sells them on BoatFix.com for much cheaper.

Purchased on Thursday...received on Friday....installed in 5 minutes....boat has run perfectly ever since!!!! Can't wait for the summer now!
