Hi All
If possible please can you help me have a dune buggy in the Dubai, united Arab Emirates which is running on a Yamaha snowmobile engine number 8H800, at present one cylinder has low compression. But in the UAE there are no parts, and as do not know what the engine came out off I am have great difficulties finding parts.
Do you know what this engine came from, year etc etc, can you tell me the best place to find a manual and parts
Other markings on the engine are:
8R600
535cm3
8I-000812
I think from looking at the web that it is a SRV540 not sure of year.
Thanks
Andrew

Is it a fan cooled motor or liquid cooled motor? The SRV has a fan cooled motor but they also made a 540 in the Vmax that was liquid cooled.

If you know the year and model you can get OEM parts at yamahasportsplaza.com

It would be better to support our sponsors or advertisers like http://www.portyamaha.com/ or http://www.excellmotorsports.com/ to get your OEM parts. They both give off 15 to 16%.
Yeah ^^^ portyamaha has great service!
your definately dealing with a 540cc fannner. the 8R6 stampning will cross with some of the xlv's.Cheshiretvr said:
is that an 8I(eye) or an 81(one)? kick the third digit in there and if its an R it would be xlv, if G, its an srv. not much difference between the two except the crank and the oil pump drive. based on the info given your dealing with something around 1986.
