Got to give a shout out to HDI Marine, especially Hailey!
thursday before labor day i was fueling the boat for a lake michigan crossing the next day friday, i noticed that the mixing elbow was leaking. i had remembered that HDI offered a stainless steel replacement for the yanmar. Hailey call me back quickly and asked if i took it apart yet. which i hadnt, she recommended that i also ordered the 90 degree piece that went to the engine. she stated most get broken in disassembly. i ordered both pieces overnight. received friday morning, installed in under 2 hours and week end went on as planned. oh, with overnight shipping ($70) the total was only around $300. sweet deal!
thanks Hailey!

Bought my elbow and coupling from them back in 2017. Great quality. I bought 2 of the largest pipe wrenches I could find at harbor freight. Now they are ornaments on my garage wall.

Pipe wrenches have two qualities: Big and Old. Yours are big and they are getting older. May they get older before you need them again.

Hailey is the BOMB. She answered ALL my questions before I ordered exactly what you did for my 3YM20. Loved being able to tell the new owner that he wouldn't have to worry about that part for a long time.

My wife's grandfather was a cabinet maker. I have some very interesting looking old hand tools of his on display in my garage.
