Very informative, especially the cold starting sequence. Thanks for taking the time making this!

Amazing video. Thank you for taking the time to upload it. I will spend the weekend trying to revive one of these, let's see how it goes!

Thank you very much for an excellent video

Well explained. And very well questioned. Well done. Loved it.

Brilliant thanks! The number of times we have manually cranked our engine without flipping that lever up 🙈

I have the same engine in my boat and this has been hugely useful, and I’m in Largs 😀

Nice guy - explained things well

Awesome video well explained 🙂 learned something today

Holy Smokes at the yeah/yes! At one point 12 words were spoken and 6 of them were yes/yeah. Quite annoying. Wonderful explanation once I shut the sound off and read the wording. THANKS!

Thanks

You guys still running this engine? I'm trying to locate where the "start/stop" control cable connects to the engine. Trying to bench start same engine and can't figure out the cold start "feature"

Hi - I have a VP2002 in my yacht - motor is raw-water cooled but overall in a similar condition to yours (cosmetically) How many hours did you have on your VP2002? And why did you remove the VP from your boat?

Anyobody know how to drain and replace the coolant on this bad boy? I’ve got this very model on a beneteau with very poor access. I’m pretty sure I’ve felt the block drain on the bottom left, but for the life of me can’t find the valve. Many thanks to the kind soul who can help this brother out before Canadian winter starts!!!

Hi David, can you tell why you removed the motor? ta

I have problem in the same engine...no fuel coming out from tje high pressure pump thru injectors.... Any to recomend to cheak...?

Good afternoon, tell me, what idle speeds should be? Thanks.

You couldn't get him to tell her about my Yanmar could you? :-) hehe.....

How old was that diesel?
