Saving Another Yamaha WaveRunner 500 (TOP SPEED RUN!)
Рет қаралды 5,053
Күн бұрынMy 9yr old loves her 1988 Yamaha WaveRunner 500 so much.. I scored another one. Needed a carb and I had to disconnect the heat sensor. Oh and a CDI... You can find these old Yamaha's in fields. Usually they just need some clean fuel and fresh plugs.

Great video… back in the 1900’s I had an ‘87 Wave Jammer 500…. I was 15 and loved the versatility… Higgins Lake, Michigan…. Opportunity to buy a really nice shape 1990 650 LX on a trailer for 1k… that brought me to your video… how much faster the 650 vs 500? Noticeable?

@@GeorgeLanivich thanks for watching! Yes, the 650 is a nice noticeable upgrade. You’ll be a lot happier with the power.

I’m a Yamaha tech and I can’t speak on that motor specifically but Yamaha outboards usually call for rtv (yamabond) on top of the gasket. I agree it’s stupid but that’s what the service manual says
