Default Yanmar engine oil

Scotty or Jeff,
Do you have an oil filter part number? Fram or whatever.


When I bought the boat there was a site that claimed that most of the
third party filters were worthless. When this was verified by my most
frugal boating buddy, I bought a bushel of authentic Yanmar filters
and I'm still going through them.

If you want a Fram, I'm sure West has the chart.

I just ran 3 gallons of anti-freeze through the sea-water side and collected
it in a bucket, poured it back into the 3 jugs and put it away for next
year's winterizing.


So now you have some antifreeze that's been diluted an arbitrary
amount. I usually suck up about a gallon, then open the valve on the
Vetus waterlock muffler. I usually remove the water pump and
sometimes the exhaust elbow.
