I feel your pain. I have a Yanmar YT347 that regens between 6 and 10 hr. Should be 40-50 hours. I’ve been working directly with Yamaha engineers to try to resolve the issue. This has been going on for 4 years.
As noted, I already run T6 just in the 15w40 variant.I would definitely try switching to Rotella T6 which is 5-40 just to see if anything changes, 5-40 definitely fits very nicely in your temperature range.[/URL]
I never said I was having them every 2 hours, but LS said 2 hours is normal.You’re getting regens every 9 hours, not 2.
Move past that and focus on why it’s running dirty or the regens aren’t completing properly.
It's all on my 6 acre wooded lot, and a mix of stump grinding, moving down trees/brush with a grapple and dirt work with the bucket. Spent the last 2 days moving trees to a large slash/burn pile, and only maybe 30 minutes stump grinding.Is all your use the same type operation?
no, no noticeable difference in the exhaust before/during/after a regenWhen i regens, do you see a fog coming out?
I bought it new in 2020, I believe the model came out in 2019What year is your LS?
Yes, the 240 is a turbo. Getting all my ducks in a row here and it will go back to the dealer.Agreed: Injector(s), fuel pressure, fuel timing.. turbo if you have one. Send it back to the dealer again and have them actually look at them and not simply read the ECM logs.
Not to change the subject but what grapple did you get?? Where did you purchase your hydraulic lines??It's all on my 6 acre wooded lot, and a mix of stump grinding, moving down trees/brush with a grapple and dirt work with the bucket.

That is part of my thought process, print it out, send them a link, consolidate just ideas, etc.How are the mechanics at your dealer ? I think you should show them this thread because the answer to your regen issues is probably there. If they still don’t manage to fix it try finding a Dealer with better skilled mechanics.
Dealer installed the 3rd function at purchase, and I went with the Homestead Implements 60" root grapple, no complaints.Not to change the subject but what grapple did you get?? Where did you purchase your hydraulic lines??
