    Thanks. Just got a new to me 60hp Yamaha with only 322hrs but 16yrs old. Just checked the anodes and all is well. Great video. Keep up the good work.

    Nicely done Drew !! Awesome pace for explaining these jobs :) . Just done the same job on my F50 , but lost 3 of the anode tips in to the cooling passage :( as they broke just as you showed. Any issue with cooling on yours since you lost one into there ?

    I love your video's Drew keep up the great work. I've followed all your F50 video's and everything has gone smoothly, even the water pump was a piece of cake with your help.
    I'm going to do the anodes next. I assume these anodes go in to the water jacket to stop the salt water in the cooling system corroding things. So if they break off inside how and where do they come out of the engine? Not much can pass through the telltale even sand can block it, so obviously anode fragments would be bad. Or do they go in to the exhaust chamber?

      Haywoodjablomie100 The exhaust chamber is what they told me they exit through... And Thank You!

    Hello, I have a problem. I started to change the anodes of my yamaha F60 four stroke 2005 engine and of the 5 4 they broke, removing them from how bad they were and the part of the anode that goes into the engine the pieces remained inside and I have no way to remove them since They fell inside and cannot be seen. What I can do ? It's no problem that they stay inside, does it affect the engine?

    A quick hit with a shop vac will help remove the broken off anodes and some of the debris left inside. just hold it right over the hole for a few seconds.

    Hi drew. Awesome videos, heaps of helpful advice. Just wondering how your motor is still going after the anode snapped off in the block?

    Hi Drew.
    How has your experience been with this Outboard?
    How long had the anodes been in before you changed them?

    • @captaindrewcavanaugh
      @captaindrewcavanaugh  5 років тому +1

      Love it! I have never had any issues with the 4 stroke Yamaha's. About 6 to 7 years change them.

    Thanks for your video, i saw your outboard was some many grease on it, it that okay? I have my old 2 stroke 115 also dirty as your video outboard, and someone told me just leave it will be ok

      Drew Cavanaugh theres brown and oil on the engine just cover on the power head is that okay?

    • @captaindrewcavanaugh
      @captaindrewcavanaugh  9 років тому +1

      +Jerry Chan Oh yes okay. This is a corrosion spray I apply. It is a "wax" type of brown look, it is not oil or grease. It helps to stop rust from the saltwater spray we get here in Florida.

    Adding a little grease to the grommet makes it go in easier.

    I was recently flushing my Yamaha and saw that water was leaking from that top anode? any ideas what that could be? I have the parts to replace it.

    "Hand specification". As an engineer, you're giving me nightmares.

    Tapered is the word for the rounded end of the grommet.

      Most all engine shave the anodes. Depends on models where they are located at.
