Lubrication
1) Remove the spark plugs, and spray a
10 second spray of Yamaha Stor-Rite
Engine Fogging Oil into each cylinder.
Grease the spark plug threads and
reinstall the spark plugs and torque to
proper specification.
(Refer to the Periodic Maintenance
section, “Cleanning and adjusting
spark plug.”).
2) Turn the engine over with the stop
lanyard disconnected to work the fog-
ging oil into the piston rings.
3) Change the lower unit oil. (Refer to
the Periodic Maintenance section,
“Changing gear oil.”). Inspect the oil
for the presence of water which indi-
cates a leaky seal. Seal replacement
should be performed by an autho-
rized Yamaha dealership prior to use.
4) Grease all grease fittings. (Refer to
the Periodic Maintenance section,
“Greasing.”)
