Re: Picking up a 1981 G1 for next to nothing? Yes or No?
I am 100 percent sure this is a 2-stroke. I thought all G1's was two stroke? i need to read up on that. I will get home tonight and try cleaning out the fuel system really good. I am picking up some boat seats for it this week.

Re: Picking up a 1981 G1 for next to nothing? Yes or No?
You are correct! All G1 are 2 stroke. I was haveing a brain fart moment!
I would just plan on changing out those crank seals. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/gas-y...yamaha-g1.html http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/gas-y...-fan-side.html From the web: The Yamaha G1 had a 2-stroke engine. The G2-G9 models had a Yamaha-built 4-stroke 285cc 8.5 hp, single-cylinder engine. It has been said to have been a basic copy of Yamaha's motorcycle engine. After the 285 grew long-in-the-tooth, a 300cc was built on the same design platform, but it pumped out 9.5 hp. Next came a 301cc engine built on a new platform. It produced 10.0 hp, and is the design platform for the next 357cc engine. The newest engine of the Yamaha engine lineup is a 357cc, named the 357F, 11.4 hp engine. All of Yamaha's engine except the G1's are 4-stroke, overhead valve (OHV) engines. All Yamaha carts except the YDR ("The Drive") have a Dana/Spicer rear transaxle. The YDR uses TEAM clutch systems and a TEAM transaxle with its brakes housed in the casing, eliminating drum brakes on the two rear wheels. Here is a link on cleaning that fuel filter: http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/gas-y...fuel-pump.html Here is a link on something to check out on the carb: http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/gas-y...haft-hole.html The carburator is very similar to those found on a mower, so if you have cleaned one on a mower you should have no problem. |
