After a month since purchase we were ready to fire her up. New seals, spark plugs, water pump, impeller, thermostar and gear case oil installed. Engine turned right away but needed help with some starter fluid - lots of smoke in the beginning burning old oil fuel and fogging oil.
Choke was open at start then closed.
After about 3-5 minutes of running and revving hard smoke went away.
Ran for about 10minutes straight on idle. Messed with throttle rpms were consistent. All in all success! No bogging, no shakes, no over heating, and most importantly no leaks!
Restored 1990 Yamaha 2 Stroke Outboard Success.
Thanks to our pal Eric who carried this project!
