Hi, I have a 2010 Yamaha 115 hp "Salt Water Series" 2 stroke outboard motor and it has dual battery leads fitted in case I want to add a second battery.

Problem is the second 'live' lead (or second positive lead) touched the metal frame that holds the battery and 'earthed' causing sparks. Since then the outboard 'misses' weather at idle or at speed and while idling it often stalls. Any ideas as to what I might have damaged in the motor please. Any help will be appreciated.

the idle air motor in the throttle body is probably not working right it lets more air in the intake when its cold and is supposed to shut off when it warms up if its not shuttin off then it is probably not closing

A large rubber hose feeds air to the large block with "RE-EGI" cast into it. Between that intake hose and the RE-EGI block, called the dynamic chamber, is the throttle valve. You can adjust the idle speed by adjusting a screw in the top of the throttle valve to 800 rpm.

2010 Volvo XC60. It starts but shuts off after 2 or 3 seconds.

Question edited for clarity, add MAKER.
Question moved to model category.

Number 1 tip, NEVER disconnect a battery. Always keep voltage to the ECM and Anti-Theft Immobilizer. You can use two wires, another battery or jump leads attached to the connectors. Even an MN1500 battery is enough power for 10 minutes.

There is normally lots online regarding setting the security system, but I only find this

Outboard motor,overfilled oil. Corrected, still little flow out

Too much oil in a four-stroke engine can cause too much pressure in the crankcase and force oil out of the crankcase breather or past the seals that normally keep the oil inside the motor. This can leave oil outside the engine which then slowly continues to wash off into the water.
Clean the outside of the motor (inside the external casing) with rags and/or degreaser and lots of water to remove residual spilled oil.
Recheck oil level again after running the motor.
If the over-pressure was very high it's possible that a seal is damaged and will continue to leak after the oil level is corrected. If this is the case you might be able to see freshly leaked oil somewhere (after running the motor) to find what needs fixing (e.g. a new gasket or seal may be needed).

Hi, when sitting on my 1986 cb700 nighthawk do the cylinder numbers start from left to right as 1234 and does left coil go to 1 & 4 and right coil to 2 & 3 ? Many thanks. Brian

The coil with the yellow lead from the pulser supplies sparks to the inboard cylinders. The coil with the blue lead supplies sparks to the outboard cylinders. That is all the rules needed, as the coils fire both cylinders though one is on the compression stroke while the other is on the exhaust stroke.

My 2005 Yamaha 150 four stroke won't shut down for several seconds after key turned to off position and often acts as if no powet connection to start but eventually will start.

Sounds like the contacts in the key switch are faulty. If possible get another switch temporarily and just see. Plug it into the harness and see what happens. What exactly are we talking about? Bike, outboard?
