Re: Big problem and need advice
The mid 80's Yammi 250's were slower than the 225's and used twice the fuel. I wouldn't do that.
Whats wrong with the one you have? If we pool our mind power, I bet we can get it fixed.

Re: Big problem and need advice
If the original mechanic had pooled his mind power maybe he would have noticed the disconnected wire from the temperature sensor. ???

Re: Big problem and need advice
It was wedged neatly into an area where it sorta kinda looked connected. *Anyone smoking crack could have made the same mistake.

Re: Big problem and need advice
is it a 250 V6? if so not a problem but if it's a V8 no it will be to heavy, there have been a few with 250's and 275's on them for sell on ebay so it will be fine as long as it's a V6

Re: Big problem and need advice
I guess it all depends on where you fish or what you use your boat for. There is a guy around here that has a V20 with a 70 yamaha. I am sure it is slow but he gets around. He is having more more fun then the guys on the pier!
Wellcraft sold them with 130 and 115's new.

Re: Big problem and need advice
You are correct Deshet and contrary to what Flounder stated the 115 V4 works very well and especially on a bracket. 35-37 mph full load and three guys along with full bimini and enclosure. Plus it sips fuel even wide open.
But I would suggest Tuna you look for a 150 V6 as being the ideal all around. I have seen too many V's with a heavy engine on it and IMHO it is not the way to go for multiple reasons .

Re: Big problem and need advice
Thanks guys. *The wife and I have decided to bite the bullet and repower with a new Suzuki 140.
I'm not sure she believes it's a good idea but I've been whining so much that I think it's worth 10G to her JUST TO SHUT ME UP!
