The recommended oil type for the Yamaha LZ150TXR is Yamalube 2-M, a two-stroke outboard motor oil.
Regular maintenance should be performed every 100 hours of operation or at least once a year, whichever comes first.
To winterize your Yamaha LZ150TXR, drain the fuel system, fog the engine cylinders, and store the motor in a dry place.
Check the cooling water intake for debris, inspect the water pump impeller, and ensure the thermostat is functioning properly.
Check the battery charge, inspect spark plugs for wear, and ensure there is sufficient fuel in the tank.
Attach a garden hose to the flushing port, run fresh water through the cooling system for 10-15 minutes while the engine is off.
Signs include difficulty starting, loss of power at high speeds, and irregular idling.
Visually inspect the propeller for nicks, bends, and cracks, and ensure it's securely attached to the shaft.
Operate the engine at varying speeds below 3000 RPM for the first hour, then below 4000 RPM for the next hour, avoiding full throttle.
Remove the engine cover, disconnect the spark plug wire, use a socket wrench to remove the old plug, and install the new one with the correct gap.
