Engine Repair Part 1

Diagnose, tear down, and repair of a 4 cylinder, fuel injected, overhead cam engine. This is an 1100 cc Yamaha 4 stroke engine from a Wave Runner.

[@SixtyFiveDropTop]

Glad you're back. I learn stuff here.

[@PetesGarage]

Sorry...I have been looking for a good project to make a video of.

[@iisreset]

Just bought a Yamaha jet boat with two of these MR1's in it so thought I would familiarize myself more with them. I really like your teaching mentality, thanks for sharing! Can't wait to watch the other videos.

[@PetesGarage]

Glad you like them!

[@Black1994ImpalaSS]

Pete, these videos are great. SO very detailed. I have a VX1100 and VXR1800 (2009/2011). Lost a timing chain on my VXR and just had the heads redone at a local engine builder. Your breakdown of the head was a great visual to go along with my factory service manual. I plan on cleaning up the head on the VX Cruiser this fall.

[@PetesGarage]

Awesome....thanks

[@TheSurvivalSecrets]

Looking forward to this series. Keep up the great work.

[@PetesGarage]

It will be interesting

Thanks Pete, excellent video, with your help I did pass part one of small engine repair class, I had never worked on engines before. I have fallen in love with Honda 750 Four cylinder motorcycle engine.

[@PetesGarage]

+jonathan bosco That is awesome...congratulations

[@cartmanrlsusall]

[@junkeychan]

I wish you lived close to me, I would love to soak in all the knowledge you have.

[@PetesGarage]

junkey chan I'm trying to share it in these videos

[@junkeychan]

***** Thank you very much sir!

[@corwindotsonful]

Yay you're doing videos again.

[@PetesGarage]

I needed something worth making...woo hoo

[@gemwebb]

Great video on fixing a jet boat. I just shared how to fix a starter on my channel!

[@Shinobi91585]

YAY!!!! More Pete

[@PetesGarage]

I know....I've been out of the loop for awhile

[@makarakeo9313]

thank you 👍

[@PetesGarage]

Welcome 👍

[@KiwiPowerNZ]

This will be interesting I'm going to watch them now. My 2006 Corolla has a 1800cc 4 cylinder and it's done 287,000km which is 178,000 miles. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it, but I keep getting that itch to work on it. How much longer till the bottom end bearing shells wear out, that would be a fun little exercise to replace those and satisfy my need to wrench on it. Maybe I need to buy a Ford, then I'll be wrenching on it every weekend.

[@PetesGarage]

+KiwiPowerNZ Hey...if it's not broke don't fix it. I'm still working on this engine

[@Siafu66]

Always interesting Pete! BTW: I have a plastic welding kit for you. I will drop it off when I am in your neighborhood.

[@PetesGarage]

Sweet!

[@snower13]

Nice heli.

[@PetesGarage]

The 130x or the 450x? They both fly awesome

[@ziggassedup]

I'll be interested to see the result...The fact that water is in all the cylinders and pretty uniform I wonder if it ingested a mouthful of water or there is corrosion somewhere on the inlet manifold..

[@PetesGarage]

Have not found any smoking gun yet. I pulled the engine out and there is no real glaring problem

[@targetpro6871]

Love the new icon! Tell me that isn't the Cobra body I've seen in your shop. If so, you've get a lot done since the last time I saw it! :)

[@PetesGarage]

ok....it isn't a Cobra body....but it is...lol

[@jmp601]

What caused the water to get into the cylinders on this ski? Improper flushing? Blown head gasket?

[@PetesGarage]

I never really found out, but it must have back flushed somehow

[@michaelcarolsanchez9000]

any advice on 2009 kawasaki jetski stx 15 not idling right? runs good on top end but stalls when I release throttle.

[@PetesGarage]

Look for any loose, cracked or fallen off hoses first

[@WizzRacing]

Make sure to check the rear main seal. If it's pushed out at all. Water is in the crankcase and most likely a bent rod as well.

[@PetesGarage]

When I put it away last winter it ran awesome. This was right at first start up. I'm thinking cracked head

[@WizzRacing]

***** I worked for Yamaha Motors for 4 years. We would just stick a pencil in each cylinder at TDC. See if any don't match the rest. Then check the rear main seal. To see if it's pushed out. If they are. We would just order a new rebuilt one. As the labor and parts cost more then the rebuilt one. If you just bent a valve. You got lucky. Most the time the rod takes the hit.

[@PetesGarage]

Somehow water is getting into the cylinders. No bent valves or rods. Could be just the head gasket but I can't tell at this point. I need your expert help on this one

[@WizzRacing]

***** I'm not saying the head gasket isn't bad as well. In most cases it's getting water from only two places in the combustion chamber. The pump seal got blown out and induced water in the intake. Or it over heated and warped the head enough to allow water to bypass the gasket. As I'm assuming you winterized it and drained the water out the engine because if you didn't the block could be cracked and it doesn't take much water left in the engine to cause that. I'm talking just a cup full is enough.

[@PetesGarage]

Ok...here's the situation. When I started it there was oil coming out with the water from the jet drive. Oil was getting in the cylinders and white smoke was coming out as well. I shut it down and left the hose water running. When I pulled the plugs the cylinders were full of water...so...oil and water was getting into the cylinders. I will not say the block was bone dry. But it sat for at least 4 months before it was cold enough to freeze so any moisture should have dried up. Since no water got into the oil system (oil reservoir) I'm assuming it was all internal. Either the head gasket or cracked head. The even nature of water distribution makes me believe head gasket

[@arthurapostolopoulos2307]

Hi Pete just want to know ow with the engine mount bolt is it normal for the rubber to twist as your taking off the bolt

[@PetesGarage]

Yes it is, spray some penetrating oil on it first

[@mrboffo44]

Pete, did you ever diagnose the problem with this wave runner engine?

[@PetesGarage]

I did not find any major problem. It was most likely feeding back through the exhaust.

[@broncohuntly_7269]

do they have timing chain.somthing let loose bottom mine.starter just spins pistons aren't moving?? please help

[@PetesGarage]

There is a timing chain but the starter connects to a transfer shaft

[@IddsufailPK]

subbed, gj Pete. Please keep making videos. If you need a project idea pick up a 240sx and learn to drift! never too late

[@PetesGarage]

IddsufailPK This old dog is not getting into that....lol

[@ciziazyke5662]

5:20 😂 amazing very interesting blessed 🙏🛸🌌🚤✅🚀

[@PetesGarage]

Thanks Dan

[@ernestspiteri5970]

What's the best compression on cylinders ?

[@PetesGarage]

It's all apart, I did not check

[@321kiteboarding]

Where are your other rebuild videos of the Yamaha?

[@PetesGarage]

There are 2 more but I haven't finished it yet

[@XhilaratingAdventures]

Hey Pete. I Have a 2007 yamaha waverunner fx ho 1100 engine that is being check because I bought it used and it seems wasn't being serviced. We found that the crank bearings are burned but the crank is ok. Can you guide me on what bearings are the right OEM ones to buy. The come in different color from yamaha. I'm not even sure if the ones we took out were changed before.

[@PetesGarage]

There has to be a measurement guide somewhere

[@XhilaratingAdventures]

I bought a manual a found all the instructions and bearing code table. The crankcase number 6B600 Y-1 and the number on the flyweight lobe which is 22222-2322 MBC does not give me a code which is in the manual. Incase you can help the number on the Conrod end cap is 5B

[@wednesdaykartingflyingclub8164]

I'm sure you've finished this project a long time ago. But any chance you still have this waverunner? I have an extra engine and am looking for a ski to drop it in. Just thought I'd ask in case you pushed this project to the back of the shop. I love your videos. Keep em coming.

[@PetesGarage]

Interesting you should ask. I still have it sitting on the trailer if you're really interested. I'd even throw in the engine.

[@wednesdaykartingflyingclub8164]

Petes Garage where are you located? Wasn't it Southern California?

[@PetesGarage]

I am in Buffalo NY

[@wednesdaykartingflyingclub8164]

Petes Garage I'm still interested. How can I contact you off of KZbin? Does your shop have a website with contact info?

[@PetesGarage]

My phone number is on all my videos. [phone]. Text me anytime

[@jakek3232]

How hard is it to wrench on PWCs? I really want to open my own business. I'm not big into cars but I love PWCs, ATVs, and snowmobiles.

[@PetesGarage]

It's not that hard. There is big money in PWC's.

[@jakek3232]

***** Awesome! What do you recommend I do to get started?

[@garrieparsons2265]

if you had a stuck injector on this jet ski could it be the ecu damaged ? or the dealer working my bill up? if one injector is pumping to much fuel does it simply just need replacing or repairing?

[@garrieparsons2265]

i was told the ski has a bad ecu they cost 1700 new wow ? if the ecu was bad would all the injectors be playing up ??? thanks for your advice

[@PetesGarage]

If the ECU was bad I wouldn't think it would run at all.

[@yonathanlopez5027]

I have a 2007 Yamaha VX110 sport jet ski and I have a problem with it that it beeps when I'm using it and it turns a warning light on and an engine light on the dashboard. When I turn it off and turn it back on it stops beeping for a couple of minutes and then starts beeping again. sometimes it doesn't beep for a long time. Do you know what can be causing this?

[@PetesGarage]

+Millionaires Luxury Over heating

[@yonathanlopez5027]

+Petes Garage Thank You! How can I find whats causing the engine to over heat? Is there any suggestion you can give to find whats causing this problem?

[@DukeBiggsley]

You can get the code by holding the circle button down on the dash. Have it running and silence the alarm, then press and hold the button for 8-15sec until a code comes up. Then look online for what your code corresponds to

[@PetesGarage]

That's cool.....thanks!

[@miguelpradiante1474]

A minha mota aquece o que devo fazer?

[@PetesGarage]

eu não sei

[@gregwilliams2947]

I have oil leaking on bottom of engine runs for about 20 min beeps 5 times the 6 time it's on

[@PetesGarage]

That's not good

[@VivaUkraine22]

Hey Pete! Which city are you?

[@PetesGarage]

[@PetesGarage]

Yes

[@shaibadam2320]

Pete's please

[@PetesGarage]

Yes?

[@shaibadam2320]

Pete's can you teach me my jet ski when I start it can't start I don't know what problem

[@shaibadam2320]

Pete's can you teach me my jet ski when I start it can't start I don't know what problem

[@shaibadam2320]

If I press the button to the dashboard show checking Engine 123 I don't know what is probablem is fuel pump or throttle
