[QUOTE="Still Afloat, post: 508861, member: 32426"] So I got a chance to use the YDS software with the above Yamaha and Suzuki diagnostic kit. It seems to have everything a guy would need to pull codes, reset them, etc. I was a bit nervous about the 115 Yamaha on the new to me North River. It ran well during the test drive but, the tach read only 20 hours and it was obvious that the engine had seen more time than that. The seller claimed 200 hrs in his ad and the ECM read 209 hours so close enough. Will check out the Suzuki F9.9/20 and F25 when I get a chance. Apparently ECMs in these OBs are powered off the stator so the engine has to be running to pull codes. That might present a challenge in a situation where the OB won’t start. Perhaps, I misread that. You would think that a battery would also power the ECM. [/QUOTE]
