Will My $700 Yamaha 90hp Outboard Run Again? 

I'm mechanically inclined, just not outboard motor mechanically inclined. Your videos are great tutorials!!

You should give us an in-depth view or insite of that boat, how it manages to hold a 90 without completely tearing the transom off is amazing

I'm still surprised how that sketchy jon boat is capable of taking a freaking 90 without breaking into pieces ..

Your videos and tutorials have gone up incredibly in quality! Keep it up!

Great work and best tutorial.I bought a 2009 40 hp Yamaha 2 weeks ago.Got it cheap as someone hit a car and smashed the motor at 60 kph.Smashed the trim/tilt so I removed it off and will not use trim .happy to show pics.Thanks for again Regards Trevor in Australia

wow man impressive how your competence makes you fearless just take the whole thing apart like it's nothin! Major knowledge-envy.

Great job! It is impressive that you went as far as pulling the power head and repainting it to make it all match. I am so like that you went ahead and got into the carbs to make sure they were good . . . because you are right it was the best time to do it. Incredible job!

I only subscribe to two channels,your channel is one. Good informative videos. No nonsense BS. Keep them coming especially now we are getting into our boating season in the north east. Good job.

You sir are living your best life. Thanks for taking all of us on a little boat adventure. 🛥️

I'd be wearing the kill switch lanyard, it might save you one day. Thanks for the great videos.

Nice job man! Love seeing this kind of work done.

I couldn't help but be scared for your safety when I saw that 90 on the john boat. Super sweet deal for that motor. Great job!

Amazing video and channel!!! Love how you go into detail fixing the boat and at the end we get to see it running out on the water!!! Love your channel dude

Love to see people with KNOWHOW fixing stuff!! Great vid!! :D

you definetly know your stuff, i have learned a bunch just watching you. great videos

Love the outboard videos. You do a really good job of explaining things. Awesome stuff 👍

That was awesome! That was a great job on that 90hp Yamaha...thanks for sharing.

you do absolutely amazing work. I loved your Airboat project !!! Kee them coming.

ThatBoatGuy is awesome! Very good videos. Makes me feel like I can do this myself!

Great job. I’m with you on painting it, already into it might as well make it look as good as it runs. We’d make good neighbors, I can’t resist good deals and tinkering either haha.

Your videos always help me with something I'm doing somehow your lucky you live in outboard heaven. It's hard to find good motors and boats to make money on here in NJ. I do a lot of work on smaller Johnson outboards and Yamaha's outboards are just fun to work on.

Great show I’ve learned a bunch, thanks!

Nice score, one of the best engines out there.

Always enjoy the music and drone footage at the end of your videos. Thank you.

Nice rebuild man , good to see a cast away get tuned up like that and work that smooth

Afternoon 😎 just wanted to say thanks & I really enjoy the channel. I scored a nice Honda Shadow VT-700 in the same type of deal because of the huge difference in compression between The jugs. When I got home and pulled the head off the Bad jug I found out the exhaust valve was cracked. Got online and found a nice used head for like $60, then flipped the bike and made $500 😎

Had the same problem before the summer few years back, hats off to ya you know your stuff👌 you were definitely around engines as young lad!

I absolutely love your videos man. Please keep it up.

Thanks again. I have loved your videos from the beginning.

Great job with the motor and great job making the video! Thanks for sharing!

Love the channel buddy very informative keep it up

Enjoy your videos ill watch them multiple times to gain the knowledge that you have thanks a million

Great video. A little more detail on the how to side of the repair. This goes here. This lines up there. Identifying the parts as you remove them. I have worked on boats for years. Fiberglass, Gelcoat, floors, carpet. Never did any mechanic work except for basic service and winterizing. Seems like your pretty knowledgeable.

Your just like me my freind,, love the Yamaha,, l work on many of them so easy and simple heaps of conferdens and skill with your tools,, you just get into it and fix what ever needs to be done,, any thing under 60 hp dose not get hammered like the big hp moters so not much there to fix ,, l have to say that the worst thing to do to an outboard is to not use it ,, so most of the ones you find have low hours witch makes it a great byeing and great for making a small profit , love watching your hands go to work,, can you go up in hp ,, they do get heavy to move ,,, enjoy watching you at work l never get sick of you,, well done ,, simmo

Great video. Never been into boats until watching you. Keep up the great content.

The Yamaha 90 is my favourite outboard. Thanks for the great in depth videos

Great to see a perfectionist and an expert at work! Alan Northern Ireland 👍

love watching your videos man

Hey man I just want to say that I'm a beginner boater and you make it look so easy. Your videos are very entertaining.

Love your spirit and skills. Thank you

Daym I love your videos man keep it up

You are the Best, Your videos are great tutorials!!

Grande Erick!!!! Keep up the good work. Saludos desde Argentina.

Great. I just change impeller my Yahama 30 autolube. Runnin goog. You have great videos. Greetings from Finland

Attention to detail. That’s what makes your videos awesome!

Pretty awesome sir , a great walk thru..🤙

Great vid!! Thank you very much. I really learn watching your tutorials. It would be awesome if you could maybe now and then make a full length video of what to do (fromt top to bottom) when getting a used motorboat (2 and 4 strokes). You are very didactic and you really make it look so easy. Greettings form Argentina! PS: Maybe you should get one of those headsets to hold the camera for you. They look stupid, but they would make your vids look even better.

This looks so much fun! I really need to buy me a house and start a lot of projects like these 😁 Good videos!!

Keep up the good Work Love the Vids!

You are a beast man. Great videos!

New subscriber. Learned a lot from this video. Looking forward to more!!

Thanks for another excellent vid!!!

Thank for the tips. That boat and motor look like a fun combination

Great job . Very educational video. Thanks

Good job, great motor. Love 3 cylinder yamaha s. Have a 40hp, would like to upgrade to 70 someday. Dont forget the kill switch lanyard

Nice job. I like how you show testing every motor that you repair on a boat.

"repower takeoff" gotta love the truthful craigslist ads... nice video as always! thanks!

Nice work thanks from Canada

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills! Very cool.

Thanks for the video during this difficult time.

Great vid man!

You are amazing. Keep making videos so that we can learn from you.

Yamaha are great motors, good engineering makes for easier rebuild. You do a great job of doing it keep it up! Looks like the boating world has slowed down, plenty of empty water along the coast. I am just south of you in Englewood, plenty of nice open water here too.

Excellent video thanks so much also for the Craigslist posting

Good job Eric i have an 06 90 Yamaha with 65hr on it i luv it did buy it new dont use it much unfortunately but every 2nd month i will run it for 5 or so minutes 🇦🇺

Gday mate this is the same model i had in a 50hp it was on a chase boat up north and i had it shipped down , stripped the head of not to bad but looked like something had damaged the inside of the combustion chamber ,checked with a local mech he said nothing to worry about changed all the sacrificial anodes out and cleaned as much as i could up with a stainless wire wheel on my dremel put it all back together and ran like a top start first crank every time .

Nice job. You make it look simple!

Love your channel look forward to seeing your videos thanks

Another great one.... you make it all loos so easy !

Thanks a lot for sharing your experiences with us.

You’ve got a good life my friend. Count your blessings.

as I wrote in the previous comment, I bought the same engine. It fires up and works very well. Trim seals need to be replaced, I already have the part numbers from your movie. Greetings from Poland

What a talent! You could make a living with these things and your knowledge!

That goes well with a 25!on it and you put a 90 on it. Well done awesome job 👍🇦🇺

Okay, @thatboatguy, you got some skills, is all these repairs, overhauls, etc... just for extra money enjoyment or is this your career? Thanks for the great videos. Learned a lot of the last few months I have been subscribed!

Thanks bro. Nice vid.

Great videos buddy watching from the Cayman islands 👍👍👍🏝

Thanks for all this video keep up I love all your video

Great video as always. 👍🏻

You made this Engine Like NEW Again Sweet

Great job buddy that thing rips 😍

so cool! keep the vids coming!

Well done.. i wish i knew all about the mechanics of an outboard and how to fix them.

Very cool...simple when there's no bs'n around. Tape the key to the shaft... or somewhere where you dont forget where you put it for safety !!

great job the boat really looked like it was really getting along the water

Thanks for filming

Awesome video! That motor screams!

Again thank you for the video that was pretty awesome watching a 90 on a Jon boat well I got that thing must fly

I’m excited I just picked up a 75HP Yamaha can’t wait to see it run

Great Video Thanks!!!

You do good work!

i love the yamaha 2 strokes they are unbelievable

Another great video..... Question, the saltwater corrosion you have with the replacement part, 1) What do you use to get bolts off without breaking them, 2) Do you remove the saltwater buildup inside the heads when you can or just leave it be?

Lol, I thought that was a pelican sitting on the bow at 9:44. Damn, this cabin fever is getting to me.

Nice job, runs like a champ.

Great job. Saved a ton of money. I just paid 270 bucks for head gasket job and fix leaking carbs.

A 90hp on a 16' boat is a good power match up! Nice job Boat guy 👍

good job on that motor! nice boat too!

Super impressed. That motor looks fantastic. Worth the extra effort for paint. I need an engine just like that - do you sell any that you rebuild?

Great video, you were lucky with just a bad head, motor looks/runs great!
