    Looks like a good product, too. Your description of the condition of your engine sounds exactly like my stuff that has had Boeshield on it.

    I agree about petroleum distillates. I 'think' Boeshield has some in it, but it clearly states that it's fine for rubber parts. Or, at least, if my memory serves it does - it's been a few years since I remember checking on that. Without being a chemist, I would have to assume that whatever amount of petroleum is in there is safe - or even that maybe it flashes off. Considering how long Boeshield has been around, I would have to say that it's pretty safe. But it's good to know there are other, top-quality options out there.

      I don't believe it has any petroleum distilliates (like some other products) which isn't good for rubber parts, etc..
      May want to look at the material make up ,
      It is mainly petroleum distillates and petroleum oil with a little carbon dioxide to pressurize the can.

      But if it does what you want it to then you are good to go

        I was using another product (forgot what it was) on my old engine. When at the dealership, they frowned when I mentioned it and pushed this product.

        They assured me it was safe to use on the engine itself without any harmfull effects on the rubber, etc. It wasn't cheap but for my investment, anything to help protect it I'll use..

        The only rust I have on the engine is a NON SS washer exposed to the water under the powerhead (you can easily see it just peeking upwards on the starboard side).. Why Yamaha put a regular washer (looks like a flat fender washer) there is beyond me... But under the hood (and elsewhere actually), no corrosion what so ever... I do grease the steering, tilt tube grease fittings with Yamaha's suggested brand grease after every use.. Cheap insurance..

            Hi guys!

            Thanks for your suggestions but that 2 products you mentioned seems to be hard to find in EU and order from US postage make them to be VERY expensive so I have to find something around for the job.

              Yea, I know!!

              Almetelo, if you can't find anything local, I'm pretty sure Yamaha makes a product that does the same thing. You should be able to order thru your local Yamaha marine dealer/parts...

              Here ya go;

              Yamaha Yamashield Protectant and Lubricant Spray

              Yamashield, replaces BoeshieldB9

              Dennis, I gather this is similar to what you have, maybe updated some..

                other than being nastier than boeshield, fluid film works great.

                I have motors I service that have been sprayed down with fluid film since about 2001 that I know of with no effect on insulation or plastic parts,

                    never tried the LPS2 stuff.
                    I have always used Fluid Film cause that's what the dealer stocked,
                    fluid Film is the product name. its not affiliated with any outboard manufacturer that I am aware of.

                      LPS2 is great stuff. In fact, all of the LPS products (1,2,3) are good stuff. Very widely used in aviation. Just take care to use the right number for actual application. I go sparingly with the number 3.

                        Hi guys!

                        Rod, If youŽre talking about this product I can find it in UK for +/- $20
                        However I'll have a look on local auto parts shops and my local Yamaha dealer to check what I can find.

                        So far I used WD-40 and on my 2 strk 30x3 I used to spray it with 2 strk oil TC-W3



                        IŽll let you know how is my cleaning

                          yep, that's the nasty stuff but it works very well.
                          I also use it when torching out bolts and bearing carriers as it doesn't flame up.

                            From the description of the Yamashield, it sounds just like the Boeshield T9. If I was a bettin' man, I'd say the reason it "replaces" T9 is that Yamaha finally came out with their own version of T9, and nothing more. Looks like either of those (or the LPS stuff or Fluid film) are a good product to use. They're probably all very similar.

                            WD-40 is "OK', but in terms of long term protection it doesn't hold a candle to Boeshield - and based on what the other guys are saying, not compared to those products, either. WD-40 is a great starting fluid for diesels, though!

                                Scott your motor look like new, you take good care of your stuff.

                                Today I've been cleaning stator and motor.

                                Started using sandpaper but soon moved to a wire soft brush on the driller.



                                Rusty/cleaned stators VS spare stator.

                                My spare stator doesnŽt seems to look much better



                                Tested the stator with a multimeter and is good.
                                Later will test it with the DVA

                                Timing belt got some WD-40 oil type (not much) from when I soaped the flywheel/crankshaft to release the flywheel, that may be a problem?

                                Rod, If I'm not wrong guess I've read on a previous post you prefer a analog/needle DVA, any diference from a digital?
