Also change your oil if your oil level rises. Keep and eye on the oil level every trip.

This should help. I have a Yamaha maintenance schedule uploaded on my web site. Simply click on the .pdf on our page and it will take you to the schedule. It includes all of the newer Yamaha outboard motors – just scroll down until you find your motor. If I can help in any way, please let me know.

Mine now has 19.5 hours, it made oil for the first 10, Yamaha told me to change it at 10 hours. It had stopped making oil by then, I changed it with the Yam Synthetic and ran the hell out of it the last 2 weeks, hasnt made oil since. Whats the best gear oil to use, is there a sythetic?Last edited by mike dominick on August 1st, 2012, 2:43 pm, edited 2 times in total.

Mike, did you repower your PIV with a SHO? Or do you have a new rig now?
