The Yamaha manual recomends using an oil extractor the change the engine oil. Does anyone know why you can't just use the drain plug?
 
Don't have the answer but I would like to know this and about engine break in period. The dealer said 10 hours of varying rpm and probably not to run it too hard. Any comments?
 
While were on the motor topic, Is the gear noise when going into or revers normal (Sounds kinda harsh)
 
You will hear gear noise when shifting from forward to reverse for a second, which is normal.
 
I have the Yamaha 150 and it is smooth and quite at idle speed no vibration
 
I have the Yamaha 115 and we do get a little bit of vibration when in gear at idle speed. The dealer claims it is normal... he checked the prop, but I forgot to ask him what size is on there... maybe that could be the problem?
