Yanmar 420 Hp reliability
My port engine just blew.
The fuel injection timing assembly "grenaded" itself causing a rod to be thrown which put a 4" dia hole in the side of the engine. Has anyone ever experienced a failure mechanism like this? Ever figure what might be the root cause? |

R-12 car air conditioners are responsible for the ozone hole, right? |
