Re: 2002 4 stroke Yammy belt squeeling
It is a 2002 225hp. I just got back from the the water, we went out in his boat. The belt rarely squeels, and it is not real audible. He is thinking of tightening it himself. He said he took off the plastic housing, and he said there is about 1 inch play in the belt.<br />Do you know if 1" is normal?<br /><br />He said he went up to the dealer and asked the mechanic would look at it for him if he pulled the plastic cover and bring it to him and the mech. agreed. He took off the cover and brought it down there. The mechanic said, when would you like to make an appointment. And when he finally looked at the belt, he said aragently, "thats normal"...long story short, he spent 16K on this motor and he gets treated like that. <br /><br />No wonder he just wants to do it himself. I wonder if he should take it to another dealer?
