This Yamaha thing is tiny. One example.... GM and their wonderful Vega piece of sht. Every single 4 cylinder aluminum block failed. Some in warranty most out of warranty. They just kept building and selling them.

This stuff happens all the time.

BTW, I don’t feel these outboard companies have a grip on direct injection. Is it absolutely necessary to meet EPA standards?

VW tried to sneak by with not meeting them

Nevernind. Yamaha has decided to cancel the F425 launch. According to THT experts the thing is too heavy. All booked orders from builders should be canceled. All booked training classes are (should be) cancelled. Back to the drawing board we go...

Of course but that's about $600.00 an hour in fuel

Those Vega engines failed because the first few model years there were to iron cylinder liners....aluminum block/aluminum Pistons....with the iron liners things got some better.....

I bought a '72 Vega with a oil burning engine(ran real crappy) on purpose.

Put a 283 V8, 200 HP under the hood, headers.

Didn't smoke oil anymore, but it DID smoke a bunch of Camaros (sleeper)!
