The Quartermaster* First time comment. Great video! In 1996, I purchased a Beneteau 40 C/C sailboat with a Yanmar4jh2e diesels. Had the boat 25 years, put on 5,000 plus hours without any problems! Changed the Rotella 15/40 oil and filter ever 100 hours, transmission fluid every other oil change, changed the Raycor 500 fuel filter every 100 hours, and the yanmar fuel filter every other oil change. Kept the engine room spotless, and the breather filter changed when visually needed. Replaced injectiors 3 times, starter once, plus normal wear and tear parts. Result, 54,000 nautical miles and 5,000 plus hours of perfect trouble-free service! Yanmars are without question the most dependable and best running diesels you can buy!
Bryan !!! So glad you are back !! I missed your ‘how toos’ - I’m glad you are back and doing videos ! Nice job on the Yanmar .. can’t wait to see what is next .
@@BryanSailing it is good he is back. hope both enginges will be installed soon.... and i hope more not to wait 7 months again for the next video...... but all the best.
Nice to see you working on your Yanmar Diesel engine! Yanmar makes a wonderfully reliable engine which is the same 3 cal diesel as my 855 John Deere has.
Marine engineers tip If you don't have new copper washers you can heat them up cherry red and drop in water the process is aneeling will make them soft and will seal well 😊
Bryan, nice to see you back at it again and I must say the new hair do suits you well, it may well be that's the way to "complete against the other sailing channels" .. out dapper them 🤣😂😇
I absolutely love the content you put forward. Its human and it shows that its possible to to anything with the right mind set. Further, you show that there is a path to completing things. Even a full rebuild of an engine. Really looking forward to you picking up and taking off again with everything.
have to say it runs very nice,... hope it is going north to (main??) soon and he can store it behind the new house. working next to home is a lot better.
very good to watch you back at work, and always remember you have people here supporting you and wishing you well..keep going mate , need to see you sail to Oz at least once :)
Glad to see you back Brian. No worries bud, life happens....just never give up or loose yourself trying to please other people. Make you the priority in YOUR life and do what makes you happy.....as long as it is finishing your boat and going sailing.....;)
First I've seen of you in awhile Bryan! Glad that you are working through things and look forward to seeing more! You have won a lot of people over with your adventures so just know that there are scores of people cheering you on from their proverbial armchairs!
Gday Bryan, Great job on the engines! Marinas are notorious for getting moisture in their fuel. I’d recommend taking plenty of filters with you and having a drainable/visible water catching reservoir on the bottom of the fuel filters and checking them often. Also an accessible drain on the bottom of the fuel tanks. Just makes life easier. Seeing you in front of the log fire reminds me I’ve got to get out and get some wood in. Getting colder down here now. Have a great Summer Bryan. Wishing you fair seas and following winds in all aspects of your life mate 👍👍🍻
When ever I pulled an engine apart I bag the bolts or nuts up into sections like bolts for the exhaust bolts for the intake bolts for the rocker cover. etc.Zip lock plastic bags and a permanent marker are cheap.
i have 3 degrees and my doctorate in psychology and i find you to be an amazing man. i reside in WPB Florida do you ever find yourself in that neck of the woods? id love to meet you. My wife and I are wanting to purchase a used trawler we think....im Doc....Great video love your content
Several yrs back saw an interesting video by diesel mechanic on DIY cleaning injectors. Get a tire rubber valve stem with cap. Remove the valve inside. Drill a small hole through top of cap. Using the small red straw that comes with can of carb cleaner, heat end of straw, without closing off the hole (tricky part) then quicky thread the straw thru the hole in end of cap so that melted end forms seal with cap, and 3-4" of red straw is sticking out of top of cap. Cap is screwed on to rubber valve stem and wide part of rubber valve stem is pushed on to the inlet end of the injector. Red straw is attached to carb cleaner nozzle and holding things tightly, spray carb cleaner- it will clean out the injector (held in vice our your hand) and its nozzle. If the injector needs 12v dc power to open, use a 9v battery or 12v power source with wires and alligator clips to power the injector. Spray until the injector's spray pattern is correct.
One should not reuse a headgasket, but you can. BMW 318i with an M40 motor, being an apprentice with no money and a thrown timing belt. I replaced 4 valves and used Indian Head Shelac on both sides of the headgasket. Worked great untill it needed to come off. That shelac really sticks everything together. I must say that the original headgasket came off in one piece and left no chunks behind
I'll be shot -;do what makes you excited and fulfill your heart. Like a parents have one thought, I don't want for my kids to see that I gave up on my dreams. So understand your dreams and go for it. Last, side perspective, ridding kite in Brazil is just a hobby. Great experience, and you can give much more.
Bryan where are you? Please give us an update, we miss you and need you. You motivate me to keep going on my projects and help keep my dream alive. I am sure I am not the only one.
Have you considered upgrading the engines? I wonder how much you'd get selling those once re-built. Our 44ft Lagoon 440 has 57hp (4JH57) Yanmars and we can easily motor at 6.5/7kts on a single engine burning 1.1-1.5 gal/hr depending on rpm. 30hp on a 44ft catamaran is a bit underpowered from what I've seen. Antares no longer offers their boats with anything less than 40hp engines. Obviously we all want to sail as much as possible and avoid using engines, but the extra HP helps a ton. We've had to power through massive currents while passing between channels. It's nice to know that I can get by on a single engine if I had issues. I don't think our boat could have powered through those kind of channels with just a single 30hp. Keep up the good work. My boat has some bulkhead issues that I've been grinding out and re-tabbing over the past year. I'm also a software engineer who loves projects! But watching your videos makes me feel like my fiberglass work is not too bad! haha
Great work! Did you put new copper crush washers under the injectors? I know VW and Mercedes diesels are really sensitive to that. Remove an injector, new washer on re install. Or you might have leaks! I don’t know if Yanmar’s are the same. I should know. I own 2 of them!
Good to see you back. Looks like you have lost some weight and you got a haircut, well you got all the hairs cut. Question, did you use new head bolts?
Bryan, where is your link to your Patreon page located? I am following your instruction repairing my hurricane damaged Morgan 454. Keep up the excellent instruction Sir. I gave you a shout-out on my RUclips channel.

Marine engineers tip

Don't you want to let them air cool, not quench in water?
Excellent to see you back ... All the best keep up the great work .
Thanks a ton, now back to work :)

And like I bloody love it your channels so different it’s brilliant ❤
I’ve been working on my motorcycle and when I was finished I had two extra bolts. You make everything look simple.
Good to see ya! Your drive is inspirational
I appreciate that!
Bryan, nice to see you back at it again and I must say the new hair do suits you well, it may well be that's the way to "complete against the other sailing channels" .. out dapper them 🤣😂😇

Good job on the engine! Great to see you are doing well, I hope everything starts rolling your way soon! Thanks for the video.
Thanks 👍 Things are already starting to look up.

Love ya style Bryan , thank you
You make a diesel engine interesting to this old lady who knows little about engines!! ❤️😂
I am glad you’re back!
Not bad dude! Really exciting to see that Yanmar reborn! Very valuable experience to know that engine inside and out.
Keep doing whatever you are doing, looking younger and healthier. Love the smple attitude of just getting on with it. Counting the bolts is genius
Welcome back, we’ve been waiting. Like your style of presentation, like what you are doing, keep up the great work
Wow I'm doing the same Bryan...Love it, hope your still planning on sailing!!
Great update/ blast from the past.
Hope you find joy in the journey. Keep fighting!
Thank You SO Much for being YOU! Do NOT give up your dream!! No matter what!!

What's going on Bryan? Have you given up on your boat, and or RUclips?

Im here because sail life. The huricane damaged cat ended up in mads hands. Well they are in the process of securing the boat
Ser bra ut Bryan keep up the good work 💪🏻🇸🇪👍

Hi Bryan, please tell me you set the tappets.😂
You probably left it out because it might confuse a few.
Regards Steve.
Bryan!!!! Ahoy mate, you doing ok?
Good to see you back. Looks like you have lost some weight and you got a haircut, well you got all the hairs cut. Question, did you use new head bolts?
Where would one purchase a hurricane damaged boat?... I'm looking . Thank you.
Bryan, where is your link to your Patreon page located? I am following your instruction repairing my hurricane damaged Morgan 454. Keep up the excellent instruction Sir. I gave you a shout-out on my RUclips channel.
Nice!!
Congratulations! Do you have a second engine to rebuild?
I already rebuilt it and used it to bring the boat back to where it it.
Another day above ground.
Hi mate where are you I miss your videos
Great video, “gut and tight “😂
Hows the boat going?
It's been on hold. but just like the videos, I'll back back at it soon.
Where is the boat buddy?
At 10:25 those are called banjo bolts.
Good and Tight haha
👍
