Steyr 6 cylinder SE series diesel - has anyone here got one?

[Dogone]

I need to do the maintenance on it now and really don't want to buy OEM parts. For those who complain about Volvo or Yanmar costs, this company sets prices on another level of ridiculousness at 5 to 10 times the price of generic parts. So I could do with some help to find alternative sources from anyone who has been on this path before.

Only seen the engines in a Bandvagn, and they will be expensive.

Yes. A fair number in military applications. Not a lot in recreational boats from the lack of response here.

You could ask on the farming forums about steyr tractors.

I’m sure I can fine generics. I already did on the fuel pump 85% cheaper. It took a day of my time hunting though. It’s an expensive time/return calculation.

I looked at tractor engines. They appear quite different. Seemingly the tractor division is now part of Case/New Holland. A different company entirely.

A friend has a Steyr in her (baked bean shaped) lifeboat, a 128 people version she is adapting a liveaboard, and was only complaining today about getting heat exchanger anodes for the engine.

I think I nailed the impeller. The pump looks like a sherwood. Generics for a quarter of the price.
