2021 AR195 only 2 of the 3 pissers working

[Jamlewis]

Howdy folks. I have only observed 2 of the 3 pissers working at any given time. Are they all 3 supposed to be functioning regardless of the conditions? If so is there a common fix for that. Boat seems to perform fine and since I am driving most of the time I don’t get to check often to see if the third is coming on intermittently.

If your boat is a twin engine, you should have two. The bigger one is for the bilge.

 

[Jamlewis]

I should clarify. It’s a single engine. There are three nozzles. Only 2 of the 3 nozzles are pissing.

Only one should be pissing for single engine

Not on an SVHO, all 3 should be pissing

Ah ok I have just regular 1.8L didn’t realize there’s a difference in cooling system

What are the 3 outlets? I get Engine and Intercooler, but what's the 3rd? Also where does the bilge exit?

What boat and engine does it have??
Pictures of said pissers would be great also

You should probably update your profile to include the boat you have. It says you have an AR210 which would be a twin engine.

That's my question too... I have two on my twin engine. Should be still two + bilge on a SC engine.

 

[Jamlewis]

Thanks all for the feedback. I updated my profile so it should reflect that I have the 2021 AR195 with SVHO. Attached is a picture of the pissers.

All 3 should be working while on the water.

The 3rd takes a few seconds after engine start. When running off a water hose, you need a lot of pressure to get all 3 to drain.

Huh, learn something new every day. Looked at the yammie website and sure enough there are pictures of the 195 with 3 pissers, doesn't look like one is bilge. I don't see the bilge outlet tho. Mystery intensifies.

Couldn't tell ya what the 3rd pisser is as I'm no expert by any means, just know I check them every so often and all 3 are pissing. See pic for 3 pissers with bildge outlet next to them

Close up shot, don't see the bildge on his newer model in the picture also. Strange

For reference, from Yamaha website. 3 pissers running and bilge a few feet forward of them.

 

[Jamlewis]

Thanks- Guess I need to take it out and see if it actually starts to work when I get up to speed. I read in another thread that if one is blocked the water still flows, it just goes out with the exhaust. Anyone have experience with that?

 

[2kwik4u]

Thanks for the clarification guys. Wonder if they put the T-stat outlet in the side wall instead of the transom.

At least on my 2019 AR195, the T-stat outlet is in the transom (over the nozzle).

When operating the boat, all 3 pissers should have water coming out. It should look just like the picture above posted by TimW451.

When on the flush hose, usually only 2 are flowing for me due to water hose pressure.

@Jamlewis The SVHO is a super-charged engine and they use one pilot outlet for engine, and two for intercooler. The standard HO engines have one pilot for the engine since there is no intercooler. The bilge outlet is forward a couple feet in the pics. All three pilot outlets should be streaming gently when idling and spray out harder as you throttle up. The pilots are visual cues to confirm water is flowing through the engine and should be checked upon starting the engine to confirm all is good. If all 3 are not streaming when you're on the water, you have a blockage or other issue that needs to be addressed.
