Transmission Damper

Post by sailingzeus »

Hi there...
I need to change the damper/Coupling made by Torflex in my 6LPA engine. Anybody has done this recently that can give me a vendor's name, other than Yanmar? Neither Hurth or Yanmar provide too much info about this part.

Any help will be appreciated.

Try Bayshore Marine in MD, their contact info is in the Recommendations section on the AOG Board Index. Or a call to Mastry Engine's your FL Yanmar distributor in St. Pete's.

It seems my Damper plate needs to be changed also as a noise has developed form this location between 1000 to 1400 rpm. At first I thought it was one on the belts coming loose but nothing changed after tightening the belts. I called Mack boring and Bay Shore to get the coupling before I pulled everything apart, but they weren't much help. They recommended I remove it first before ordering it. I hate to do this not knowing when the part would arrive as they also would have to order it. Mack Boring said they usually use a Centra coupling part # 3311316004 at a cost of $467. Recommended I take a picture and email before we order it. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.
