  • 98 Yamaha 15hp Outboard.

    Good Afternoon, I have a 1998 Yamaha 15hp Outboard. I use it for my zodiac. When i took my boat out last weekend. First of all, Yamaha has machanism that wont allow you to rev up your engine while its in nuetral. Well when i fired up the engine, there was no problem, now when i shifted my gear into "forward" mode, the prop would engage, but only rev up to Im guessing 1000+rpms. The tiller handle wouldnt allow to turn past half way. Basicaly the engine still "think's its in nuetral whenever i shift it into forward. Also i noticed that my pullstart rope can be freely pulled when the engine is in nuetral, but cant be pulled when the engine is in forward. Now the rope can be pulled reguardless whether its in nuetral or forward. if you can help me please shoot me a email to dmshore@comcast.net
    Thank you very much, Dylan

    Sounds like there is a shifter problem, check the shift linkage to see if everything is connected
