General information

dry rags.

 

 

Do not overfill the fuel tank.

 

 

Tighten the filler cap securely after re-
fueling.

 

 

If you should swallow some gasoline,
inhale a lot of gasoline vapor, or get
gasoline in your eyes, get immediate
medical attention.

 

 

If any gasoline spills onto your skin, im-
mediately wash with soap and water.
Change clothing if gasoline spills on it.

 

 

Touch the fuel nozzle to the filler open-
ing or funnel to help prevent electro-

 

static sparks.

CAUTION:

 

ECM00010 

 

Use only new clean gasoline which has
been stored in clean containers and is not
contaminated with water or foreign mat-

 

ter.

 

EMU25570

 

Gasoline

 

If knocking or pinging occurs, use a different
brand of gasoline or premium unleaded fuel.

 

Gasohol

 

There are two types of gasohol: gasohol con-
taining ethanol and that containing metha-
nol. Gasohol containing ethanol can be used
if ethanol content does not exceed 10% and
the fuel meets minimum octane ratings.
Yamaha does not recommended gasohol
containing methanol because it can cause
fuel system damage or engine performance
problems.

 

EMU25640

 

Engine oil

 

If the recommended engine oil is not avail-
able, another 2-stroke engine oil with an
NMMA-certified TC-W3 rating may be used.

 

EMU25741

 

Propeller selection

 

The performance of your outboard motor will
be critically affected by your choice of propel-
ler, as an incorrect choice could adversely
affect performance and could also seriously
damage the motor. Engine speed depends
on the propeller size and boat load. If engine
speed is too high or too low for good engine
performance, this will have an adverse effect
on the engine.
Yamaha outboard motors are fitted with pro-
pellers chosen to perform well over a range
of applications, but there may be uses where
a propeller with a different pitch would be
more appropriate. For a greater operating
load, a smaller-pitch propeller is more suit-
able as it enables the correct engine speed
to be maintained. Conversely, a larger-pitch
propeller is more suitable for a smaller oper-
ating load.
Yamaha dealers stock a range of propellers,
and can advise you and install a propeller on
your outboard that is best suited to your ap-
plication.

Recommended gasoline:

Regular unleaded gasoline with a min-
imum octane rating of 86 (Pump Oc-
tane Number) = (R+M)/2

Recommended engine oil:

YAMALUBE 2-stroke outboard motor
