Clark gives an overview of our Yanmar 4JH5E diesel inboard engine, including its benefits, parts, and basic maintenance (including a step-by-step oil change). Clark also includes a few more diesel hacks, including an inexpensive fuel filtering system that has saved us a lot of money on fuel filters, and an after-market belt and alternator system we have added.
