  • Oil flow test

    I did an oil flow test on two cylinders on my 1989 Yamaha 225 V6 Excel. Manual says it should be between 2.6 and 4cc when running at 1500RPM for 3 minutes.

    I measured between 5 and 5.5 ml using the tach on the dashboard holding about 1500.

    Is this anything to worry about? I presume not since a little rich is not a bad thing but I wanted to check and ask if anyone knows why this may be happening.

    Yes that is close enough, the oil pump is putting enough oil into engine.
