Engine Block Maker Quest
Trying to figure out who made the block/motor for Westerbeke who marinized it into the W27. The stocker alternator is a Mitsubishi M65R, leading me to believe it's a Mitsubishi block.
Might also be a British Leyland block?
Engine oil and filter change - Engine hours 2760 8/21/10
Changed oil as it had sat all winter. Replaced with FRAM PH3593A.
Used hand pump from Advance Auto with 1/4 nipple connected to sump hose. Worked better than the drill pump but still pretty messy.
Have 4 spare oil filters on board and 4 gallons of fresh oil. Walmart had oil for $8.50 and filters $3.75
Replaced engine injector pump fuel filter - Engine hours 2760
Replaced the injector pump fuel filter with Westerbeke part 30200. It was dirty!
Picked it up from Lakewood Yacht Service in Kemah for ~ $17
Have 2 spares on board in engine tupperware under quarterberth
Changed engine lift/bleed pump fuel filter - engine hours 2760
Changed with Westerbeke part number 30548, old filter wasn't a pleated version but just a fine mesh.
Picked up from lakewood yacht service for ~$20
Watch to make sure this doesn't reduce flow too much.
Have 2 spares in engine tupperware under quarterberth.
