The upper casing assembly is as well engineered as the rest of the superb Yamaha marine engine components, but, as with all mechanical parts working in a harsh, corrosive environment, it will eventually require refurbishment using new replacement components and fasteners.
The spares situation remains surprisingly good, for now at least, a testament to the longevity and enduring popularity of the type of engine this component fits.
This component is perhaps one of a number you may require; more are listed below:
Add as many items as you wish to the same shopping cart, new bolts, nuts 95380087009018305M02 and washers 92990086009299008100 (to replace those that are corroded too badly to re-use) for example, and still only pay the same single fixed price shipping cost.
Be aware that this component may have other applications within the Yamaha model range. Please ensure the part-numbers you order are correct for your model.
