    BF60A water in oil

    Ok great thanks for this info! So from your experience the issue is not actually from the sump seal and bolts incorrectly torqued from factory, it’s from the seal on the oil pump? As I was told by the marine mechanic I’m dealing with Honda put out information in regards to it stating the fix...

    BF60 Moisture in engine oil

    Hi everyone, I have a 2014 Honda bf60. I have just recently completed my annual service on it and have noticed the engine oil looking milky once drained into the pan. Once I removed my filler cap I noticed this sludge build up inside of it. Also another little indicator I noticed is this weird...

    2014 Honda Bf60a overheating

    Looks to possibly be a faulty sensor or the humminbird is reading out the data incorrectly. On the test run I got the humminbird display reading 115°c, I then tested with a infrared thermometer on port side of block and getting about 65°c on bottom and middle cylinder and reading a bit higher on...

    2014 Honda Bf60a overheating

    Little bit of an update, still experiencing the high temperature so I’ve looked further and found that the flush valve is completely blocked up. I have always used muffs to flush and not the starboard side flush hose. Upon removal I have discovered heavy build up blocking the passages and the...

    How hot can Honda BF60 run..?

    How did you go with the bf60 engine temp and did you run into any issues? I have only recently hooked up my 2014 bf60 to my sounder and now surprised myself seeing temps up to 115°c. Did you figure out if it was overheating or this is normal operating temp for this engine?

    2014 Honda Bf60a anode locations

    Thanks for that, it was spot on so very helpful. There was build up behind the rectifier, that was cleaned up and new anode installed. I gave it all a good flush out from the stat hole down, water seemed to be flowing fine and no major debris exited. Tested boat today with and without the...

    2014 Honda Bf60a overheating

    Hi jgmo, Scary considering I have previously not been able to see temp, it’s possibly been running high temps for a while now. Maybe just running slightly under the temperature limit for the sensor to not be commonly alarming? I’m going to try flush the passages in hope to dislodge something...

    Hi there, I was supplied all required anodes for my 2014 bf60 by my local Honda supplier I cannot figure out where this one particular anode is located, I have replaced the internal anodes inside the water jacket and it does not belong in there. If someone could please point me in the right...

    2014 Honda Bf60a overheating

    Gday everyone, Having drama with my overheating alarm going off. First went off about a month ago, used the boat a few times after that with no issues at all. I’ve recently set up a NMEA 2000 network to my humminbird Helix, took the boat out yesterday to test it out and see some data and...
