  • Yamaha 40 CV two stroke alarming

    Having trouble with my Yamaha 40 CV 2 stroke outboard motor
    No problems 20kph but anything over that the motor alarms and derates
    Took boat out this morning and after one minute problem happened
    Water from the telltale was cool.
    Turn key off for 2 minutes alarm stops
    Drive around for half an hour under 20kph no problems
    Take it up above 20ks and it alarms and derates
    Impeller changed out 18 months ago and has done less than 12 hours
    Overheating / Sensor ???

    water pump not pumping enough water or scale build up in passages
    my thoughts are scale

    but never hurts to make sure switch and stat function is in spec
