Hello there,
I have a yamaha 80hp (2 stroke) which I think is early 80's. I'm hoping someone can help me out with what model it is. I can't find any identification tags but, on the engine there is a small round silver disk with the number 40016. Below this there is another (not on the silver disk) Y-I 88800, there is also a 70 with a circle around it 34/8 and Torque (30kgm)??. I bought it on the understanding it was an 80hp.Could it be a 70? It has 3 cylinders. I require a new waterpump parts and need to know the exact model I have to order.

I can't seem to attch pic's here, even when reduced but can email to anyone if they reckon the can help here, The outboard cover yamaha logo does look quite dated.

Cheers guys

Thanks a lot,

Philip

I would bet on a 70hp,never heard of a 80 hp Yamaha,they are great bullet proof motors if you take care of them. Change the impeller and gear lube just to know where you are starting from. I just looked they did make a 80 hp motor.
