Gentleman, can I install a mushroom type pressure control valve on my C40 ELRR Yamaha. I ran in salt water and flush my outboard after every use but am wandering is maybe the new type pcr might work better, that is keep it from sticking open or closed.

Is there current a problem with the existing pressure relief valve?
Yamaha has not replaced the original valve in your motor and must think the original one is doing the job for which it is intended.
But I like experiments. Buy one of the newer style valves, install it, and let us know what you see.

I think I will go fishing
A part called a CDI is a CDI is a CDI. Or, maybe it is not.
Let's tell everyone that an O2 sensor is the greatest thing that has ever been used in a Yamaha. Then, stop using it.
Let's use a knock sensor in most big block motors. But oh, let's not use it in a big block HPDI. How well did that work out for Yamaha?
Bout the only thing that one might surmise about a Yamaha is that it will be painted gray. But, don't bet on it.

the 60H is the supercession of the original.
replace it if it makes ya warm and fuzzy.
or buy a new grommet carefully clean the grommet pocket and roll.
if the control valve somehow stuck shut you would have a serious tell tale stream and possibly blowing the hose off the tell tale restrictor.
stuck open the normal complaint is overheat at idle.
same as when the new design wears the face off.

Here is picture of spring and poppet valve. The bottom spring is the orginal one for my motorl. Big different. Definitely not for my motor. Guess I will leave well enough alone. [ATTACH]2097[/ATTACH]
