Diesel Rebuild Cost

Post by cuppa »

Can any one offer me an idea of what it may cost to rebuilt a Volvo TAMD71 or a Yanmar 6LP-STE ..

What would parts cost and what would it cost someone to do it?

Any advice is appreciated

Thanks
Brian

Brian,
Is there some reason you are partial to Volvo's or Yanmar's? Why would n't you look for an engine to rebuild that has a good durability record and easy availability of parts?

I am not sure anything else would fit in an F36.
