Hi all,
When trying to start the Yanmar 47 port engine on our cat the alarm would sound necessitating turning the battery switch off then on again. Sometimes it would take up to ten times to start the engine or sometimes the engine would start right away. Several mechanics in the Caribbean looked at it and after a new starting battery, alternator, the final verdict was hydrolock and we had to have the port engine rebuilt. Two weeks later it is doing it again. Did we just spend $$$$$ for nothing?
Thanks for your help,
Richard
