[Rhodes22-list] Suggestion for a new motor

[Mary Lou Troy]

Hi Robert,

We replaced our 1998 Honda 8 with a Yamaha 8 HT (elec start) several 
years ago. We like the motor but have had several problems with 
ethanol fuel.combined with low use. We finally found someone who will 
sell us ethanol free gas so we'll see how it goes this season. One of 
the things we like best about the motor is the easily accessible 
flushing port on the top of the motor, You just hook it up to a hose 
and flush it with the motor off.  Yamaha no longer makes the 8 high 
thrust but they do make a 9.9.

Best,
Mary Lou
