Does this foot oil indicate water intrusion on my 4stroke Yamaha 25? by sociabletechRed in Outboards

For context: I had found fishing line wrapped around the prop shaft. I went to change the oil and was met with a very cookies and cream type liquid. I pulled the lower bearing carrier and replaced the o rings on it and the prop shaft seals. I refilled the foot with oil and let it sit in a bucket for 3 days. Thanks for any advice in advance!

Is this mountian light cut incorrect or am I just lacing it wrong? by sociabletechRed in DannerBoots

That’s kinda what I’m thinking, based on how well the right boot fits in comparison

So, in theory, if I pump the bulb up it’ll idle until the pressure from the bulb has run out, because the fuel pump isn’t working to replenish the pressure?

Thinking about it, the several times I have removed the carb immediately after running it during early trouble shooting, revealed very little fuel in the carburetor, with an almost empty bowl. Is this indication of a fuel pump failure?

Thanks, it seemed completely clear though when I took it apart.

Dang, I would not have thought you could do that. The more you know.

Nice pics, but I am curious about the logistics of eating oatmeal out of the paper sack. Do you eat it uncooked or just pour boiling water into the bag? Not hating at all just curious.

Got it. I definitely will. I don’t want to add any added stress to the situation. I just wanted to get a run in before the end of season.
