    90 Yam start up problems

    I finished the break in period on my 90 yami 2 stroke about a month ago and have had the 10 hr check up done. I take my boat out out every couple of weeks and I have trouble starting it the fisrt time. After its starts, I don't have any problems after that. It fires on the first turn of teh key. I prime the bulb until its firm. Any ideas what the problem is??
    (The problem is probably me!)

    Re: 90 Yam start up problems (biglawton)

    If you have a 90 two stroke motor such as I have it is probably not you doing something wrong starting it. My 90 2001 model from the day I bought it new refused to start after it sets about a week. everytime after it sits I have to spray starting fluid into the air intake for the carbs then it fired up fine they have some kind of auto priming system no manual or auto choke what so ever. If a Yamaha tech reads this and has any idea about getting these motors to start easily any ideas would be appreciated
