Hello All I would like to replace my impellers on my yamaha 200 hpdi's,and would like some instructions from all you experts out there thank you in advance.
someplace I posted a step by step instructions for doing this job. it is rather tricky to remove the drive shaft retainer and reinstall it. I dont have time right now to repost it. I think it was for someone with a 115. anyway its not hard just takes patience. I can do it in 45 min but then I have done 2 or 3.<br /> good luck and keep posting
Hi, Wgasa.<br /><br />Welcome to iboats. <br /><br />One of our members is fond of saying, "Anyone who tries to work on an outboard without a Manual has a fool for a mechanic."<br /><br />Thirty bux or so is a small investment that may save you thousands.<br /><br />Good luck.
Agree on the necessity of having a manual...<br /><br />If you absolutely must do the job without a service manual, go to this link and look up your engine.. There are exploded views which may help..<br />(parts&service) http://www.yamaha-motor.com/products/categories02/5/otb/yamaha_outboard_motors.aspx <br /><br />That dang o-ring is a pain.... always wants to pop out...<br /><br />Removing the metal part of the retainer is a bit trickey... take your time and don't tear it up...<br /><br />Before re-assembly, make sure to clean the area on the shaft where the retainer rides.. Little emery paper works wonders towards making re-assembly (tapping the metal retainer down over the plastic part) go smooth....
