I have a 2019 6hp yam. It steams up from underneath the motor when in gear. Any idea what's going on? Motor run fine. Exhaust sounds a little different I believe.
did the engine blow up before you discovered this or was the failure more 'progressive' with time? what were the symptoms? i'm always scoping each year, but hard to know what i'm looking at.
@@andrewhodgkinson9618 symptoms were overheating after long periods of idle. Cooling water was leaking out of exhaust instead of cycling through the engine. It never blew up. I fixed them, and they sold and are still running.
Because The video was made for a customer who was informed in person. Most people who stumble across the video will know what causes the water to flow and That It is an issue with Yamahas from 2002 to 2010 in the 200 to 250 horsepower range. It is very well documented. a simple Google search will show you more than you care to know
Water is coming out of the exhaust port, which is supposed to be dry. Therefore, one can conclude that there is a hole corroded in the exhaust, which is very common in yamaha F200/F225/F250 of this vintage. My apologies, The assumption was made that if you're searching for this video, you probably have some context and basic understanding of this common issue.
@@fredbrad yamaha used to sell a midsection repair kit that was about $750/engine, plus labor. Labor is fairly expensive due to needing to remove the powered, probably 8-12hrs. So I'd say almost $2k/engine. May not be worth the hassle depending on overall condition of the engine. Also keep in mind that the block may be corroded and not salvageable.
Were you getting heavy white smoke when running?

Is there running hose hooked up to flush connection on this?
No, the hose is hooked to the water intake tube that connects to the Impeller housing. You can see the clear hose in the video.

Hi!
I’m facing the same issue. How were you able to fix it?
which port is the dry exhuast? The center large port with carbon build up?
Yes
So if water is draining from that port, then the engine has the corrosion issue?
I don't understand the test
What is the tool used to pump the water?
Just a water hose connected to the faucet
What’s the purpose of making the video and not explain anything

Without an explanation of what is happening this Video is a wast of time😢

@@smqueeneyful What is the solution for this case and how much could it cost to repair a 2007 250hp?
