I recently boat a 1993 Yamaha T9.9ELRR it was starving for fuel and not running correctly. These motors are notorious for fuel pump issues and Yamaha has since developed a pump with a heat sink and cooler for them. I picked up the new pump (around 100 bucks) at Brobiel Marine (Frans a great guy). Replaced the pump and she was running only slightly better and still sucking the filter dry. I ripped out the connections and fuel line and ran a new line straight to the tank. Same thing.......... I read somewhere that a clogged crank breather could cause this issue. I pulled the breather line (see pic 1) and sure enough it was clogged with a mud wasp nest or something. Cleaned it out, checked inside the breather and other lines. Everything is clear and she is running great now. Hope this helps someone out one of these days. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I had a Suzuki 6hp on my Sylvan 18ftr was great. I had a troll master on it. Loved that thing and should never have sold it with the boat. Motor was approximately a 2014 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Jamestown distributors sells the closed cell, 2 part pourable foam. I used it when I restored my sylvan. Just make sure you block off areas you do not want the foam to go as it will expand and fill everything Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
