Hi everybody a follow up thread. The contents of the sump are now in a clear container in my garage.About 2.4 litres pumped out maybe 0.2 litres that the pump
couldn't reach and maybe 0.2 litres that went into the bilge when I removed the dipstick. Yanmar 2GM20.Capacity is supposed to be two litres. So can't decide for
sure if it was overfilled by the previous owner before I bought it or there is diesel in the oil. I expected the diesel and oil to separate but that hasn't happened yet?
The viscosity seems thin to me compared to what comes out of my Mondeo diesel car engine? Or maybe 5/30 oil was used? So maybe there is no diesel in the engine oil
and I have been worrying without good reason and all that has happened is that the previous owner has overfilled with low viscosity oil? Thanks again.
