2009 90hp starting issues

[arctic 1]

So here goes again
my brother was having issues with his 90hp starting ,
I am 2000km away so i can only give him over the phone advice ,
last year he was having issues starting ,most cases he would have to hold the fast idle to get it running , this tellms me its a fuel problem , once it runs and warms up he says no issues but sometimes idles up and down , well needles to say the bastard caught on fire and pretty much melted every wire on it while lobster fishing , he has since brought it to a yammie guy who had a pile of parts and he apparently changed everything but the ecm, he suspected the voltage reg was gone and it over charged .kind of made sense for a bit as overcharging would cause sensors to act up or even injectors i guess, well he spent 1800 bux to have repaired ,installed it today only to find he still has to hold the fast idle to get it running , does any of this make sense ?

Model?

And yeah, assuming the idle issue is fuel related, it makes sense he's still got the same issue bc he never resolved it prior to the fire.

[fairdeal]

isn't this is the type of post where Rodbolt would give his
"insert the knife between the second and third rib. " advice?

could be an F90 - or 2009 was also the last year for the carbed 2-smoke 90

[99yam40]

he mentions injectors so it must be a F90
also km so not likely the motor is one from around the USA

[fairdeal]

he mentions injectors so it must be a F90

right.
When I got the seventh line of the first sentence,
my mind ran off the rails...

[99yam40]

holding the fast idle could mean he has to open the throttle some to allow more air in.
if so, that would mean too rich on fuel at idle .
could the IAC not me working?
or too much fuel pressure,
over filling of the VST and dumping fuel into the intake ?

It is oh so difficult to put an F before the two, maybe three, numbers and two, maybe three, letters after those two, maybe three, numbers.

I am starting to rethink trying to help wannabee backyardigans. If they are incapable of stating a model identity are they capable of removing the top cowling?

Hell, they might even need help getting a motor to a dealer.

What say yee?

Not trying to be sarcastic. Trying to make a point. Thought we would have had it the first go round.

Remember getting the mules attention?
