I have Yanmar 440 6LY2A-STP engines. I'm in need of 2 heat exchangers. Both have severe corrosion.
Do I go to a aftermarket shop and have new ones made or try for Yanmar stock ?
 
Severe corrosion or do they need to be boiled out? Any photos?
 
If they need to be cleaned, I just took mine to a guy in South Jersey who does sonic cleaning
 
How old are they? Do you change the zincs as needed? Outside corrosion or inside ?
 
I have ordered 2 aftermarket coolers. There is a manufacturer near me called Lenco. Apparently they sell across the country.
They are 19 years old with 800 hours.
 
They don’t look too bad but 19 years old… good call. Hours are irrelevant, it s about age.
