We have the same engine....a 1984 model....a few years back, I just
bought the whole hose replacement kit from Yanmar and replaced all the
engine hoses. With all the Yanmar hoses specifically cut and fit for
its intended purpose, it was a relatively easy job. And now we have
peace of mind. I don't remember the exact cost but it was not
outrageous for every engine hose.....and even if you don't change them
all at the same time, you will have it in the 'vault' should an
emergency hose situation arise.
Steve has a good idea as well.... automotive heater hose will work just
fine.

Ordinary automotive heater hose will work fine, and it will last about
as long as it does in a car, which is quite a while. Most of us don't
drive around in 30 year old cars, but we do sail around in 30 year old
boats, so the fact that the original hoses are getting tired shouldn't
deter us from using the same type as original hoses. Silicone hose is
available from speed shops, and the blue or green colour would look
cool too, but at a price. It has more heat and chemical resistance,
but with slightly less mechanical strength, so the tube walls are made
thicker.

Subject: Stus-List Recirculating pump
Hi all,
The bearings were starting to go on my freshwater coolant
recirculating pump. I have a Yanmar 2GM20F. I decided to tackle the
job myself and yesterday I removed the old pump. While disconnecting
the hoses, I noticed that most of them also need replacing.
Can anyone tell me what type of hose should be used for this application?
Thanks,
Mike
