Yanmar 6PLA-STP Valve Adjustment/Clearence

Post by afrayedknot »

I would appreciate any information available as to the required valve clearance figures on Yanmar 6LPA-STP engines and who in the Chattanooga, TN area might be qualified to check and adjust them on my engines. Thanks. Bob

If you are going to get someone to do it then why do you need the numbers? The mechanic will have the specs.

Mac Boring should have a list of Yanmar Service Centers. Some even have mobile units that can come to your dock. I don't know the numbers, I was only told they are very complex engines, that was enough for me.
