Removing a 3JH2e Yanmar Engine from an Island Packet 35
IMG_20140706_111420....HERE IS THE ISSUE #1, the mixing elbow, it is nearly blocked. So the engine COULD NOT exhaust easily, then the impeller blows a fin and the two caused the over heat which then blew a valve and or a piston. This mixing elbow was off three years ago, it was cleaned at a radiator shop and I reinstalled it. I should have replaced it. These old style ones cost $200. These should be replaced every 3-4 years sooner in ocean sailing salts.
