Hi new to the forum however it looks like the place to ask! I picked up a 2005 F40 with 67 hours on it. During the first run of the season apparently the high water temp alarm sounded, operation continued, the engine throttled back, and then shut down and was towed back to the dock.
Customer brought the engine to the Yamaha shop who told the customer that the water pump impeller had failed, and that the cylinder head was warped.
I received the engine with the cylinder head and all associated hardware in a box, all taped up, sans the head gasket, which was "lost". I checked the head for straightness and cracks, the head is perfect. I ordered a new head gasket
from this site, and am ready to re-assemble the engine.
I'm a little hung up on aligning the timing belt. With the #1 cylinder at TDC the marks on the timing tab on the flywheel aren't even close to the arrow on the front of the block. Am I missing something?
