For million $$$ sponsorships (or just wanna chat) hit me up at skinnyriveroutdoors@gmail.com
Here is the video where I did EVERY MAINTENANCE item in the manual plus a carb removal and cleaning:
• EVERY MAINTENANCE ITEM...
Safety First! Make sure gas valve is closed and all gas is drained from lines in a safe manner away from all heat sources (garage heater and incandescent bulbs). Ideally entire system is drained or ran dry.
Make sure motor is secure and cannot tip over
Inspect all gas lines and carb for gas leaks after reinstalling
If you have an electric start, unhook it before working
Motor and oil gets hot. Make sure motor is cool before any maintenance
-------
All maintenance items are the same for Mercury 4HP, 5HP and 6HP 4-stroke outboards and Tohatsu 4HP, 5HP and 6HP 4-stroke outboards.

Such a helpful video for impeller replacement. Replacing the unit is tricky as you and others have said. After 10 minutes of trying, I used a cheap wireless inspection camera that I've got, pushed that up the leg to find the location of the drive shaft tube and guided it in with that - done in moments. It's a Depstech camera - cheap and cheerful but really helped. Thanks again from the UK!

At the end, where he talks about that lever that can change gears in the lower unit by moving that rod up and down is the key. That rod actually comes up in forward and releases a latch to let the motor tip forward. If you study it, you can see that when you are in neutral, the top of that rod just touches that release. So, you can use that to know what position the transmission is in after you put it all together. Great video by the way!

That’s a really good point, I was struggling to explain how to tell what gear the lower end unit is in by looking at the rod extending up to the tilt/trim release. But you said it perfectly, if it’s up it’s in forward, if it’s touching it’s neutral, if it’s down it’s reverse

Best video I've seen yet on changing the impeller on a small Mercury outboard that doesn't have the impeller behind the prop. I had read that removing the lower unit was easy, but getting it back on is a bi*ch because of having to align three different parts. It didn't seem like you had much trouble other than having it in the wrong gear when you tightened up the linkage bolt. Thanks for this video!

Make sure the shift linkage coupling is undone. If you are sure everything is undone then you can get a rubber mallet and try to tap it loose. Or get a pry bar to add pressure while to hit it with a rubber mallet / dead blow. Some people use wood or plastic wedges. Make sure you put antiseeze on the shaft end after you get it off so this doesn’t happen again.

@Skinnyriver Жыл бұрын
Yeah if it’s a 4 stroke then it should be the same. One warning getting the drive shaft lined back up and seated back to the motor was FRUSTRATING. the one big complaint I get is I didn’t cover that process enough. It just takes a lot of patience, just a heads up. I’m not aware of any tricks. But yeah there are really only 3 things it could be (impeller, water outlet clogged due to insect nest, or you sucked up something on water inlet). 99% it’s the impeller

There is a video on another channel where a guy disconnects the line from the fuel pump to see how long it takes to prime by pulling the start cord with internal tank fuel vs using a priming bulb from an external tank fuel supply. It took like 16 pulls with the internal fuel tank to see fuel post-fuel filter, but with the external tank you prime using a priming bulb on the supply line, resulting in instant fuel delivery post fuel-filter. That is why it took you so long to get her started, not due to any mechanical error, but due to the fact you are using the internal fuel tank and the cord to prime. This is an expected behavior.

Another question please, can you just clean impeller? instead of changing it? I've taken my 6hp to ocean once and engine started to bog down at acceleration after that. Tohatsu manual says that insufficient water flow can cause poor acceleration? I'm thinking maybe salt build up clogged part of impeller? ....I've noticed good stream of water peeing at low speed but at full rpm water is sputtering .....My engine is brand new 2023 barely used and it has bogging down/no thrust issues at 3/4th-full throttle speed, any suggestion? would greatly appreciate!!
@Skinnyriver Жыл бұрын
Yeah you can clean it, but honestly I doubt there is salt build up on the impeller itself. But you can take it apart and make sure you didn’t suck something up (trash) and clean if needed. I really doubt it’s water flow though. Motor should still accelerate even with No Water until it gets too hot then it will start acting crazy and bogging. If it starts to bog after you run it a while and it’s hot, then a it might be water flow. My water stream at full speed also sputters just because of the turbulence at that higher speed. Has it ever ran great at full RPM and only started doing this when you went into salt water or was this the first time you have taken it out?

I must say, that impeller pin construction is much better engineered with the Yamaha 4/5/6/ Hp 4 stroke engines. Its also a removable "pin" but much bigger and there is no slack. And these motors have a internal primer ball special for use with te internal thank. That solves the problem from draining of the carburator and that you have pull 5/6 times to fill it up again (i saw your video on that one). And they provide two opposite acces holes to loosen the gearshift (more comfortable). I own a 3.5hp 4 stroke Tohatsu, no complains so far. But I'm always interested in the engineering part of these engines.

@@Skinnyriver Yea, I'm surprised that flimsy pin construction can manage the forces of this impeller and hold it in place. I see more subtile and better thought out engineering solutions with these Yamaha engines. But you have to pay a higher price for it. Here in The Netherlands I can buy a new 6hp 4 stroke Tohatsu for about 1200 euro and have to pay 1600+ euro for a comparable Yamaha engine. Tohatsu dropped the internal tank in their latest models and I can imagine way.

The number one reason people get in trouble with these modern small 4 stoke engines is a carburator lock-up due to bad/old gasoline.
