Fired the Yamaha up and it didn't start pee'g right away. Shut it off and took the intake screens off and this fell out.


After searching old threads on here i'm thinking this used to be my impeller???


Thanks!

Yep.

Ouch. Prolly cranked it while frozen (up there in Kentuck).
Easy fix (I think). Hurry, got a warm spell coming up.

It's been down here since Oct. If I had to guess it dry rotted or has never been replaced. Parts hunting in the a.m.!!!

Thanks for the link! I had found a You Tube video, but can't seem to locate it again.... This is better!!! Appreciate it!

Oh and thanks JT for the info!!!

Anytime.

I guess the problem wasn't a loose woman like I originally though reading the title of the thread.

Hey, Chalk.... did the fellow (SIM) who posted the pictures ever post the ones where he put the LU back together? I went through the 6 pages of the thread but didn't see it.

You have to read the post backwards to put it back together

Should have known that would be the response from DOD

If you read all the responses they cover that too.
Tricks included.

On a 15 Yamaha, a piece like that got sucked up inside, took a little more repair that just replacing the impeller. Watch it closely.
