[buddyp]

Hey guys great site..looking tro buy a 18 foot center console with a f115 yamaha motor build date 07/02..2002 or 2003?..This motor has 200 hrs on it and never been serviced..motor runs good but some hesitation on top end..oil has been changed but that is all! My question is what needs to be done and what is this going to cost?

all fuel filters,including the one in the VST,water pump,pressure control valve grommet,thermostat,lower unit oil.
beaware there were some balancer issues.
chat about it with your local yamaha dealer.
usually a phone call from them to yamaha will aide if its noisey or becomes noisy.

How many fuel filters are there total?

Oh and BTW, my engine is the 2002 model F115TLR s/n 68VL1005330 if that helps.

Why in the world is a thermostat for this motor $65? Is it something special?

pretty much, that and about the only place to get it is in the yamaha box.
beats me why some of these parts are stupidly expensive.
