David, Just thought I would share, I have a Universal M35 and always had oil
spray and an odour of oil in the engine compartment. I put an automotive style
catch can from Jeggs and a better air filter on the engine from K&N which
completely solved the problem. I get about 1/2 ounce of oil a year

Maybe. I didn't perceive that from your original description. If it
doesn't terminate in the presence of the suction from the air intake then
even the oil drop out canister won't be able to fix the problem.

Hi Josh- I don’t have a port on the side of the air intake. The orginal hose
was just dangling nearby. I notice that there is a small wire loop near the
air intake opening that is about the right size for the tubing. Perhaps it was
originally held in place by that? Dave

Dave,
The can only has 2 lines that enter at the top. As you observed one comes
from the valve cover. The other goes to the original port on the side of
the air intake. The 2 hoses that appear to be coming from the bottom are

Hi Josh- Thanks for the info. This looks like a fairly straightforward mod

The tube is supposed to vent accumulated gasses to the intake. Usually

Without the 2:1 reduction gear no one with a displacement hull boat is getting
more than maybe 2400-2600 RPMs out of the A4.

I have to ask the question: will it fit in the hole?
That's a lot of engine for a 29ft boat. The A-4 only put out About 18hp at
the RPM that it probably generated pushing your boat.Â

You are right. The owners manual states the M4-30 is 25Hp @ 3600 RPM.
Transmission has a 2:1 reduction.

Had a 3 cylinder on a previous boats and it was very reliable.
As parts go I never had trouble finding the "marine-ized" versions, And as
they are based on Kubota tractor engines, there is a lot of information
about finding the non-marine parts at a cheaper price.

David,
I have a Universal in my 37+ and, for the most part, it's a reliable workhorse.
Like any diesel, regular maintenance is the key. Change the oil, check hoses,
replace filters, impellers and belts, and it should run great forever.
The only big problem I had was that the wiring runs close
