Yamaha ls2000 boat repair

I fixed my yamaha ls2000 boat for this season. very simple to work on luckily.

Nice repair. I have the same boat (1999 model). Working on it for two years. This boat model is very susceptible to vapor lock in the summer. Meaning engine requires a lot of cranking to start if you stop the engine in the middle of the lake after running the engine for some time so engine is hot. Adding a fuel pump to make sure cold fuel is always circulating from the tank and back helps a lot to solve this nasty problem ... it is not really a boat but a boat project .... That "something" that you refer to looks to me like a heat switch that turns of the engine if it gets too hot. User and service manuals are available online. Good luck ...

I have a 2001 Yamaha LS 2000 and both engine s started 2 days ago and run great, but the shift cable and steering cable were seized. I called boat us and towed the boat at the ramp where I could load it on my trailer. When he arrived, the boat was full of water (Dead battery and bilge was not working). Both engines were halfway covered with water. I charged the battery but neither engine turn. I was able to turn the engines from the cleanout port and are turning. I am waiting to dry out and see if will kick. Shall I pull the starters out and see if are working? Open for advice. Thank you.

Have the same model but in jersey having issues finding parts for the boat, any website recommendations? I’m new at this

Partzilla is where I order everything for mine from

I have owned one for 12 years, one of my motors not turning but it clicks

Bad starter? Pretty easy replacement!

[@angmed6582]

I replaced the starter and still no turn

[@I2aMpAnT]

@@angmed6582 pull the jet pump and hope that’s your obstruction and not your motor. Next pull the spark plugs to remove the compression.

[@angmed6582]

@@I2aMpAnT yeap I just did and in fact is the jet pump pulled the cover and shaft and it’s seized so it’s time for a rebuild or new one thanks again 👊🏻

[@I2aMpAnT]

@@angmed6582 no problem. Sorry about the wrong starter diagnoses. I replaced my jet pump with a used eBay one for cheap. I’d recommend the same!
