Troubleshooting & FAQ
How can I confirm this fits my specific Yamaha model?
This housing fits Yamaha's 2.6L V6 2-stroke engines (150, 175, 200, 225 HP) made from 1984 to present with standard right-hand rotation. The most reliable check is to match your existing part number to 6J9-45332-00-CA or one of its superseded numbers (e.g., 6J9-45332-00-8D).
What are the signs of a failing bearing housing?
Common symptoms include a grinding or whining noise from the lower unit (especially in gear), excessive vibration, visible play or wobble in the propeller shaft, or discovering metal shavings in the gear lube during a change.
Does this fit counter-rotation (left-hand) models?
No, this part is specifically designed for standard rotation lower units. A different part number is required for counter-rotation models.
Is professional installation required?
Installation requires disassembly of the outboard's lower unit, which involves specialized tools (like a bearing puller and press) and technical knowledge. To prevent damage and ensure safety, professional installation is strongly recommended.
