YMMV for sure. I can have my engine out in just under an hour working by myself 
and faster with help. I am on my third engine and did every bit of the swaps 
myself, so it seems routine.
Some boats have challenging access, but for me I use the main halyard and out 
she comes.

I think you’re discounting all the work that goes into engine removal and 
reinstall, it is a lot. Worse on some boats than other, of course.  I am sure 
you realize we are talking about a lot more then pulling a 20 dollar bill out 
of your pocket.   .  I think you (Joe) may have done a reinstall, and  maybe 
some people like that work. I do it, but I don’t like it.
Also, how long you are going to keep the boat. When you get to 4,000 Hours on 
an engine, it’s kind of like hitting 65 – you might have another 25 good years 
in you, or  . . . not. You’re never sure.
There is a great feeling of confidence  of leaving the dock with a new engine.
Also, there is always a great secondary market for good, used engines. I sold 
my used Perkins on Ebay with no problem, after installing a nice, smooth 
running Kubota.

There is definitely a graded approach to most people's definition of end of
life.  Some things can be fixed, some things cannot, and yet other things
are not cost effective to fix.

Bob, I'd like to know more about what went bad on your old engine.

My Yanmar 30 HP gave up the ghost 2 years ago.  It had 4000 engine hours and 32 
years of life.  Before we started cruising I never had an issue with it.  The 
new Yanmar is lighter, slightly smaller and a lot less noisy.  Based on my 
experience I would never again leave to go cruising with a diesel at 4000 hours 
of typical summer runtime.

I think you’re discounting all the work that goes into engine removal and 
reinstall, it is a lot. Worse on some boats than other, of course.  I am sure 
you realize we are talking about a lot more then pulling a 20 dollar bill out 
of your pocket.   .  I think you (Joe) may have done a reinstall, and  maybe 
some people like that work. I do it, but I don’t like it. 

Also, how long you are going to keep the boat. When you get to 4,000 Hours on

Wow.
If I had gone that far, with an engine with 3K hours, there is no way that I 
wouldn’t put a new engine in there.
I have been down that road a couple times, and the time and effort . . . The 
new breed of diesels are just so much nicer.
Too bad Cummins doesn’t make small diesels.

Just my opinion, of course.

I pulled the engine this fall so I could work on the engine compartment. Boat 
is a 40-2 Aft Cabin so engine is relatively easy to pull.

Plan was/is to do basic stuff like mounts, wiring, hoses, injectors, valve 
adjust. Plan is not to rebuild the engine. Engine has ~3000 hrs. Does not seem 
to have any issues.

The question I have for those who might know is how hard is it to change crank 
seals. What special tools would I need access to? For clarity I already have 
transmission, damper plate and flywheel off on the PTO side.
Of course there is a picture :-)

There is a small leak on PTO side. I don't think it is terrible but still a 
little leak.
Timing cover side seems to be leak free.

Thanks in advance.
