2016 Yamaha 115 LB Outboard Fuel Filter Element Replacement Update 2024 Version

[@timdoyle2871]

Perfect video, nice and clear. I like that there is no background music to interfere. Thank you

[@captaindrewcavanaugh]

Thanks! Yes, no noise. Have a great day!

[@StingRayNet]

Thanks Captain. I have a 2016 Yamaha F175, appears to be the same filter and process, is that correct??? Also, I was told that you need a "special tool" to remove the filter cover. Obviously you completed the task by hand.

[@swiberk]

Thanks Drew...could you show a video on changing the thermostat?

[@jesusbarrios5307]

Thanks for the video. It was really helpful

[@tdematteo01]

Thanks Cap. I had a hard time unscrewing the cover. I wanted to be sure I was doing it right before I broke something else😃.

[@jimquantic]

Thanks, you sure you don't need to prime it? On the main gas filter, you do or it can be a bear to start the engine.

[@captaindrewcavanaugh]

No

Today when i took boat out it would only run at half power,,like one cylinder is not firing,,it is a 2017 115 4 stroke with only 15 hours ???Rab fine last time i took it out,,,i think it knows it striper season and its wanting to pissme off...isit possible i have a fuel filter problem

[@matthewschwab9097]

Great video....how about one on changing the filter in the VST!

[@vls2000]

Hey, I'm desperate how to get to the VST on the F115B. Did you find out after the years how to do it?

[@timothypdevine]

Thank you for doing this video! It looks simple now, but before... I NO idea how to it!

[@Colinpark]

I like how you show the part #

[@flfloats8835]

Thanks Drew. When you run the engine, does air enter the top of the fuel cup; eventually causing a 1 inch air pocket at the top of the cup. I can use the primer bulb to eliminate the air pocket, but if I let the engine run the fuel level sits at about the bottom of the filter element. Do I have a air leak in the tank hose?

[@captaindrewcavanaugh]

No. Shouldn't.

[@captaindrewcavanaugh]

You may have a kink too, follow the line and check that first.

[@midwestcatz5896]

he didn't clean any of the dirt out of the fuel filter assembly .... that catches water also.

[@jimbernard8964]

Thanks for doing this.

[@captaindrewcavanaugh]

My pleasure!

[@kenprevatt1267]

Ty sir

[@mcplutt]

You will in the end break the water alarm wire in the bottom of the filter bowl if it is turned without disconnecting the connector and let the wire turn together with the bowl.

[@BobPoznanovich]

How does the connector come off?

[@michaelshoffner6584]

could a dirty element shut down the motor while in a forward motion. My 4 stroke died just after plane out and refused to restart

[@captaindrewcavanaugh]

It could be, however it could be one of many other things.

Thanks for the video..
