This is a well written manual that, for non-professionals, I would highly recommend over the "official" Yanmar shop manual (thought it doesn't hurt to have both). The Seloc manual is much easier to follow, the tasks are laid out in a 1-2-3 step by step format, and it is well illustrated, and comprehensive.

This was a very complete and thourough guide to the GM series as well as the 4JH and 4JH Turbo models. The book is easy to read yet detailed enough for the serious mechanic/machinist. My only negative comment is that the manual over looked the 3JH series completely. I believe this oversight should be corrected in future versions.

I already had the expensive Yanmar service manual specifically for the 2QM20 Yanmar diesel that I own - but it wasnt nearly concise enough in MANY areas ...but thank goodness this book by Seloc MORE than surpassed my expectations and it was worth every -penny! If you own a marine Yanmar engine that fits the 75' to 98' slot ...BUY this book....you will be glad you did!

Looks pretty complete. Has troubleshooting tips & techniques not included in factory manual. Much less $$ than factory manual.

Really liked this manual. It was deep enough for everything but also cautioned you when things should be done by the shop (like injector testing and fuel pump repair). Pics and drawings were very helpful.
