Yamaha 130hp Or 200hp??? Help Please

[robbobnob]

Hi, I needed new thermostats for my yamaha outboard and when i took the engine number in they said my outboard isa 130hp but the outboard says its a 200hp.. I have read that the yamaha outboard 130hp is a 4 cylinder, is this right? My outbaord has 6 cylinders says its a 200hp 2.6L on the engine casing but according to the yamaha dealer it's a 130.. Outboard is a 1990. Any help please? Thanks!

Checking the parts, both the 200 and 130 use the same thermo so who cares if it is a 130 (you are right however the 130 is 4 cyl) Maybe the guy at the dealers is too young to have seen a 1990 motor.- Part # is 6e5-12411-30-00.

Yer I figured the thermostats fitted, done that already, cheers though. Well I'm going to go with it's a 200 and the dealer ship here is crap. If the 130 is a 4cyl well mine just isn't that

Thanks for the help
