115 yamaha sho vmax over 3500 rpm it reves up and down under 2400 it stays even rpm. 2017 yr.
If your 115 Yamaha SHO VMAX outboard engine is experiencing RPM fluctuations at speeds over 3500 RPM, it may be due to a few different factors. Here are some things to check:
- Fuel supply: Make sure that the fuel supply to the engine is consistent and free from any debris or obstructions. Check the fuel filters, fuel lines, and fuel pump for any signs of damage or clogging.
- Spark plugs: Check the spark plugs to make sure they are clean and functioning properly. If the spark plugs are worn or dirty, they may cause the engine to misfire at higher RPMs.
- Throttle position sensor: The throttle position sensor (TPS) sends a signal to the engine control module (ECM) to adjust the fuel and air mixture. If the TPS is not functioning correctly, it may cause the engine to fluctuate at higher RPMs.
- Air intake system: Make sure that the air intake system is clean and free from any debris or obstructions. Check the air filter and air intake hoses for any signs of damage or clogging.
- ECM software updates: Check with your Yamaha dealer to see if there are any available software updates for the ECM that may improve the engine's performance.
If you are unable to diagnose and fix the issue on your own, it may be necessary to take the engine to a professional technician for further diagnosis and repair.

First thing to check: Disconnect the tiny hose between the check outlet and the engine. Disconnect it at the engine side.
With an airgun, blow in the check hole from outside to engine side.
With an airgun, blow out the engine connection.
Start the engine, check waterflow out of the engine connector. If water, reconnect the hose and check the water at the checkpoint.
If still no water at the engine connection: replace the impeller!
Yamaha 4 hp outboard steering friction swivel screw does not work
That's a current problem.
OR the screw is rusted in place. So then use WD40 or eqivalent to free the screw.
Or the parts inside are worn. Remove the friction screw. Then, remove the 4 bolts holding the swivel cap. Remove the entire engine from the swivel to prevent it fall on the ground. Replace the worn parts.
