[QUOTE="Rob Silver, post: 404737, member: 13670"] I was told that maintenance on 4-strokes required belts and pulleys being re-tensioned, as well as the mandated 100-hr oil and filter change. Another huge cost to 4-stroke engines was the replacement of belts. If you were able to do all that, would you say it was an easy enough endeavor? What amount of time did you have to put in? Did you ever replace belts on your Yamaha? Did you do it yourself or did a Yamaha tech need to do it for warranty purposes? Sorry for the questions, but I am really trying to get as much info as I can before plunk down a huge chunk of change. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
