You might have air in the oil lines and may need to purge/bleed the air in order to get the engine oil tank to fill and stay filled. There should be a manual somewhere on this procedure. Easy to do on a merc engine but I don't know about a Yamaha


From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."

Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

I had the same issue once, and I guess it is pretty common, pull your filter off the oil reservoir and replace it or blow it out with an air compressor. if still no love, pull the tank and test the pump. I hooked a 12v deer feeder battery to mine to test it. wound up rewiring the whole thing and it worked fine.
if still no love, drain the oil tank that is on the motor, this will trip the little float switch telling the remote oil pump to come on. if that doesn't happen, test the float switch with a meter. that about summs it up....I think

good luck,
