How to Change a Yamaha Propeller

[@stickermigtigger]

I'm surprised y'all don't have more views. I've watched a ton of videos on how to work on my 115 and y'all's are the best by far!

Great video. Thanks for sharing

Thank you for watching. Our goal is to help boaters like you be more informed and self-sufficient! See you on the water!

I just installed new prop shaft seals. My 94 115 2 stroke has a different style thrust washer (not the same as the specified part in the service manual). I think I should change to the correct part (6E5-45987-01-00) because the new seals are so deep in the cavity I really think something should be on top of them to help hold them in place. (The drive shaft seals have a cap that secures them below the impeller plate.) Does the thrust washer you installed here fit inside the outer shaft housing and rest against the top seal? Or is there a space between the seal and the bottom of the thrust washer?

Can you re-use the same nut and pin? I saw another video saying they needed to be replaced but it was for a different motor.

Hey There, Thanks for watching. The nut can be reused several times over so long as there is no corrosion. If you have the slightest bit of corrosion change it out as you risk the chance of your propeller falling off in the water. The cotter pin can be reused, but for the price, we do not recommend it. Let us know if you have any other questions! Happy boating!

Two (2) Qs: One (1) - What size is the socket? Two (2) - What type is the grease oil, recommendations?

[@partsvu]

Hello, and Thanks for watching! The size of the socket wrench required can vary depending on the model and horsepower of your Yamaha outboard. However, for most Yamaha outboard motors, the common socket sizes for the prop nut are: 17 mm for smaller outboards (usually up to 30 horsepower) 27 mm for mid-range outboards (usually between 40 to 70 horsepower) 1 1/16 inches (approx. 27 mm) for larger outboards (usually above 70 horsepower) Any marine grease will do we recommend Yamalube Marine Grease Lubricant. ACC-GREAS-10-CT. Please let us know if we can answer any other questions! Happy Boating!

@@partsvu thanks you answered all the Qs! We used a crescent wrench and I think on mine the castle nut is 17-18mm (it's 25 HP). Of course we messed up and didn't fully remove the washer the initial go around haha

[@jk501111]

thrust washer or spacer gave us issues (I was using an aftermarket part that I wanted to replace).
