4. Setup and Installation

This bystarter assembly is designed for easy installation as a direct replacement. Follow these general steps for replacement:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the outboard motor is completely off and cooled down. Disconnect the battery to prevent accidental starting.
  2. Locate the Old Bystarter: Identify the existing bystarter assembly on your BF15 or BF20 Outboard Motor. It is typically located near the carburetor.
  3. Disconnect Wiring: Carefully disconnect the electrical wiring connected to the old bystarter. Note the orientation of the wires if they are not color-coded.
  4. Remove Old Bystarter: Unscrew or unclip the old bystarter from its mounting point. Be mindful of any gaskets or O-rings.
  5. Install New Bystarter: Insert the new LOOM TREE® Bystarter Assembly into the mounting location. Ensure it seats properly.
  6. Connect Wiring: Reconnect the electrical wiring to the new bystarter. Ensure connections are secure and correctly oriented.
  7. Secure Assembly: Fasten the new bystarter assembly securely using the original screws or clips.
  8. Final Check: Reconnect the battery. Before starting the engine, visually inspect all connections and ensure no tools or debris are left near moving parts.

5. Operating Instructions

The bystarter assembly operates automatically as part of the engine's cold start system. When the engine is cold and the ignition is turned on, the bystarter extends a plunger to enrich the fuel mixture, aiding in easier starting. As the engine warms up, the bystarter retracts, returning the fuel mixture to normal operation.

  • No manual intervention is required for the bystarter's operation once installed correctly.
  • Ensure your outboard motor's electrical system is functioning correctly for the bystarter to receive power.

6. Maintenance

The LOOM TREE® Bystarter Assembly is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can help ensure its longevity and proper function:

  • Visual Inspection: Periodically inspect the bystarter and its wiring for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage.
  • Connection Check: Ensure all electrical connections remain clean and secure.
  • Cleaning: If necessary, gently clean the exterior of the bystarter with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

7. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with engine starting that you suspect are related to the bystarter, consider the following:
