Identify this Yamaharghh

[BananaBoat]

Hi guys,

I have this Yamaha 225 that is pretty old and I'm trying to find the user manual and a Haynes service book for it. Unfortunately the tag is pretty worn.

Any help would be appreciated!

I Have a generic Yam manual and some info on how to age and identify specific models, if that would be of any use send me your e-mail address.

its a great 2 stroke engine but the fuel bills from those are eye watering, sorry can't help with a manual.

68H is the specific engine type and the plate on other side of the bracket will give engine number, shaft length and build year if it's still there. That's a 2.6 225 as opposed to the 3.1 Vx 225. Fairly straightforward engine. Not sure but don't think Haynes did a service manual but Marine Parts in Swords may have or could get you a Clymer manual to suit. A user manual should be easy enough to get a hold of, might even have one stashed somewhere, I'll check.

Super that’s great! Will check the other side today

The other side is missing the sticker.

Would this manual cover it?

That’s the 4 stroke manual I think, B789 is what you’re looking for

Ah yes
