will it jump start a dead battery on my 90hp yamaha boat motor

Started my sons Kia v6 engine when completely dead. Not sure of boat motor compression but I would bet yes it would

It started my dead battery on my 1998 Toyota corolla so yes it should. It has it on the box that it works on boats, cars, 4 wheelers and jet skis.

You should be good if you hook it to either the starter or lights some how if you hook it directly to the battery just make sure you turn off the power when bike is not running

I don't know what the spec is but it will trip a 10 amp circuit on a BMW motorcycle equipped with the Canbus. It will run for a few seconds and then kick off. I had to wire a plug to the battery for this and other accessories.

I don't know. Mine was bad & sent back for refund. I was hoping it would work on my v8 boat. Got a reg. Batt. & it works.

Please forgive my ignorance Arthur. I purchased this to trickle charge my Optima Batteries. I am not sure if you can jump start, but you would need to have it plugged in. There is no battery in the unit. Very light.

If you are referring to the main engine starting battery then yes. If will not maintain the other system batteries, they simply are not large enough to do that. You will need to keep a check on the water levels unless it is a sealed battery.

No, this is a great battery maintainer. What your looking for is a jump start pack.

most likely it will, i had a 97 90hp yamaha, but I found it was not an exact match to OEM resulting the removal of the engine from the boat to grind down the output shaft. The extra cost to do that made the price of the OEM part look pretty good. I did run it all summer and itworked fine.

This could "jump start" any car, but beware that the battery in this is very small (like rated at 5 amp/hour). I have another brands "jump-start" that has a 18 amp/hour battery and just to experiment, I disconnected my car battery and hooked mine up. It started the car (a ford festiva 4 cyl), but the starter was barely turning the engine. If that's what happens on a small car with a much bigger battery than this, I'd be very surprised if this would be able to start a V6 or bigger engine with a fully drained battery (like from leaving the lights on all night). If you left on some lights while in a movie for 2 hours it may have a chance, but that's all I'd expect. Feel free to look at reviews of this and similar priced ones (that have a similar battery) to see if there are a fair number of others saying the same thing I am.

Yes you can hook it straight to the boats 12 volt battery just make sure you use the included fuse.

Yes it needs a switch, it just comes with pig tail wire leads. The switch you connect depends on what you want to do and fitment to your boat. A float switch in the bilge will turn it on when ever the bilge fills until it pumps out enough water assuming your batteries are supplying power to the switch - good if your boat is parked in a marina with power overnight. A manual switch will only run the pump when you switch it on, this also allows you to let the motor with no water present and run the bilge dry which isn't great for it - and you could also kill your battery if you let it run for days on end with no aux power connected. The switch should be rated for 18-24V and be fuse protected. 15A is probably more than enough.

No, it requires power from the boat's battery. It is a very easy job to wire it in, and judging by the size of the wire, it draws very little power. It is also a long wire to run where you need it.

No, the unit should be hooked to your boat battery, via the console instrument panel, or sending unit, check your boat manual for hook updirections. Mine had an older model and i just hooked the new one where the old one hooked up under instrument panel.

Just put it in to water and it will work There is a sensor at the bottom of the boat that will let the motor activated only when the boat is on water

I used it to jump my Ford 5.0 V-8 and it worked. I forgot to plug it in to keep charging (you can leave the new ones plugged in all the time) and when i needed it again a month and a half later it didn't have enough power to jump the car. I plugged it in for 4 hours and not only jumped the car, but was able to use it as the battery while we did some repairs to the ignition system. It has plenty of power. There may be smaller amp jump starters that will work, but if they don't you may as well have nothing. This thing works.

I would not bet on it. The only time that I tried this was on a diesel pick up truck with a jump start battery pack helping it and I still didn't get it started. What worked was a battery charger with a built in engine starter. This porta jump seems weaker than advertized...just my experience.
