What to do if my Yamaha Outboard Motor won't start but the starter operates?
- AAngela ChristensenAug 7, 2025
If your Yamaha Outboard Motor's starter operates but the engine won't start, consider the following: * Ensure the fuel tank is filled with clean, fresh fuel. * Check and clean or replace the fuel filter if it's clogged. * Inspect spark plugs, cleaning or replacing them with the recommended type if they are fouled or incorrect. * Verify that the spark plug caps are correctly fitted. * Check for damaged ignition wiring or poor connections, tightening loose connections or replacing worn wires. * Make sure the engine stop switch lanyard is attached and the shift lever is in neutral.
