Re: Yamaha 15hp 2 stroke bogging

Thanks for this. I will check these things again. Been focused on other boat projects the last few days, but will get back to the outboard soon.

Re: Yamaha 15hp 2 stroke bogging

Wouldn't pumping the bulb at least temporarily fix this and give the engine a burst of speed? I have pumped it while it runs, no difference.

Re: Yamaha 15hp 2 stroke bogging

As I twist the throttle it does not rev up after the first 1/3, then it just sputters, but keeps running. Every now and again -- rarely -- it does rev up, and takes off, and the dinghy hits planing...
