    zx225 Smoking after warm-up

    The first initial crank is fine, it smokes some but very little. After i make the first run and the engine warms up when i go to crank it for the rest of the time i am on the water i smokes like crazy. It has no hesitation cranking just alot of smoke. Any suggestions or answers?

    suggest trying the Yamaha board....if your Skeeter is smoking, you got BIG problems...lol

    If you have an EFI Yamaha, as I do, mine smokes too the same way. Not a whole lot but enough to keep me at peace that it's getting oil...

    Have you ever replaced the three fuel pumps? How about the oil pump, has it been checked to see if it's within the measurement at idle?

    Ok, read the notes pinned to the top of this page (Yamaha). I had a torn diaphragm and it was smoking more than normal. See the post by vmax about the 200 efi fuel pump, and read the last thread by Greg Hind.
