Hi Kim Thanks for this. It is what I'm worried about. The boat has started to blow extra smoke on start and I'm thinking unburned diesel. It also blows smoke when you idle down for a bit and then rev up again. Once warmed up it seems fine. I've got a mechanic coming in a couple of weeks (they a

Stus-List A4 Blues - Redux

I know that if I'm seeking resolution I should go to Moyer Marine, but if commiseration is needed, here's the place. The ol' A4 again died, 3rd time in 8 years. This time on my way back to the dock with a gentle following breeze and an opposing current. Easy-peasy getting Ox back on the dock. See

A couple of years ago, I had a problem with my A-4. I knew it was an air leak in the fuel lines somewhere, and after replacing all of the fuel lines, installing an electric fuel pump, paying a mechanic to figure it out who only did a tune up that I could have done myself, I decided to pull the f

Hi Chris, Pulling the tank and discovering a corroded fuel pickup tube doesn't sound so simple. I think my fuel tank is non-original in that its dimensions will not hold 20 gallons (US) - more like 15 - 17. On Tue, May 14, 2013 at 9:37 PM, Chris Price wrote: > A couple of years ago, I had a pro

Did it die suddenly?  A common problem with A4's is the coil.  If it starts when cold and then dies after a half hour or so, immediately go below and touch the coil.  If it is extremely hot, it may have an internal short.  One of my A4's had that.  I replaced the coil and the problem went away.

Hi Don, The black junk that plugs the mixing elbow can certainly be unburned carbon from a bad injector. A Yanmar that has only 1800 is a long way from the 5,000 hours you can get from an abused one these puppies. 10,000 hours is attainable with decent care. It probably just needs servicing,
