My neighbor has a Yanmar,, he got it CHEAP, because the Yanmar engine was blown.
A piston/rod came out the side of the block.
He lucked out, and found a used JD mower with the IDENTICAL Yanmar engine.
The mower had a worn out mowing deck, and one of the hydrostatic drives had failed.
The only good thing left was the engine!!
The Yanmar excavator/new-engine runs great,,
He has told me that it is REAL easy to get it off angle enough to starve the engine for oil.
He thinks that is what blew the original engine!!
