Why Yamaha EXCITER 270 Boat starter motor does not turn over?
If the starter motor on your Yamaha Boat isn't turning over, here's what you can check: * **Fuse:** Replace the fuse and inspect the wiring. * **Battery:** Recharge the battery. * **Terminal Connections:** Tighten any loose terminal connections. * **Jet Pump Cleanout Hatch:** Ensure it's securely latched. * **Shift Lever:** Make sure the shift lever is in Neutral.
What to do if the starter motor turns over, but my Yamaha EXCITER 270 engine does not start?
If the starter motor turns over but your Yamaha Boat engine doesn't start, there could be several reasons. You might need to install a lock plate on the stop switch, or turn the fuel cock to the "ON" position. Ensure you refill the fuel tank as soon as possible. If the fuel is stale or contaminated, or if there are issues with the fuel tank or fuel filter, it's best to have it serviced at a Yamaha dealer. Releasing built-up pressure by opening the fuel tank filler cap might help. Inspect the spark plug; it may need cleaning or replacing, and ensure the spark plug cap is properly fitted. If the crankcase is filled with water, crank the engine with the spark plug out until it runs clean. Finally, make sure to tighten the choke cable tension and adjust the nut.
