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.
Yamaha 40 hp outboard
Look below lower mountings you will see the shift rod with along nut and a lock nut,undo long nut,do this with motor in reverse gear,some 40s have a stainless plate cover which you have to remove first
2010 150 Evinrude E-Tech. Motor was running great then just shut off. Will not start again.Could it be it needes to be reset, all 4 lights at tach light up showing good.
first bit of advice
do not use e-mix fuels in outboard engines
WHY
because ethanol separates from the fuel if not used continuously so letting it stand between outings is not good
secondly ethanol is hygroscopic which means that it absorbs moisture from the air that is going in via the tank vent and that results in corroded aluminium parts and rusted fuel tanks and outboards operate in a very moisture laden environment
now for the problem
being a late model engine , it should be a 4 stroke and like any 4 stroke engine , check the timing belt/chain, crank/cam position sensors , ignition module
it is important to check all harness connections as salt water rapidly causes corrosion in electrical connections and components
have the service agent do a scan for fault codes remember this
Suzuki out board 2 stroke motors were used in the early suzuki 4x4 cars and modern 4 stroke engines are simply car engines on end

1990 Evinrude 40 HP with no fire on lower cylinder, how to fix
Need to know more... is it no spark? or is it no fire? -- first check spark with a spark checker or by pulling spark plug out and grounding the plug then cranking to see if it sparks... if it sparks check compression -- if you have spark and compression its most likely fuel and you need to do lower carburetor
