Part of the Yanmar Operator Manuals.
Crack the fuel filter loose on a Yanmar 4LHA and you have bought yourself an airlocked injection line; the bleeding procedure in this operation manual is the difference between a few minutes of hand priming and an afternoon of fruitless cranking.
It is Yanmar's factory operation manual, publication 49961-205431, for the 4LHA-HTP, 4LHA-HTZP, 4LHA-DTP, 4LHA-DTZP, 4LHA-STP and 4LHA-STZP marine diesels. The English section covers engine specifications, control panel and alarm functions, daily and cold-weather starting, clutch operation for the marine drive, long-term storage, and the full periodic inspection schedule from the initial 50 hour service through the 2000 hour items.
The numbers you actually reach for are here too: 15W40 lube oil and 13.0 liter capacity, 750 rpm low idle, V-belt deflection, a standard bolt torque table, and a troubleshooting chart for when an alarm sounds. 705 pages as a PDF download, bought once and yours to keep.
