Sunday tinkering and maintenance

[gotmuddy]

After taking the boat out yesterday I decided to do some maintenence on my motor. The Tiller handle was loose where the throttle grip is so I tightened it up with a custom bushing made from....3m black tape🤣

@fishinwrench do you have a pickup for a old 40hp yamaha? My prop motor has a bad pickup. 👎

Pickup ? 🤔 

Can you be more specific?

Pulse unit.

Since I still don't know what you're talking about......I guess the answer is "no".   I don't have one.   

Try Crowley Marine or Boats.net for Yamaha parts, and prepare yourself to wait.....and wait.....and wait some more.    

I have Nissan/Tohatsu parts that I assume are stuck on a ship offshore somewhere.   It's been almost 2 months now. 🙄
