I had a recent issue just prior to and into the first week of a recent
month-long sailing trip where I had intermittent starting problems with my
3HMF30. It turned out to be the solenoid for the starter. The old solenoids
are sealed units--so there really is no way to "repair" them. I then found out
that I couldn't just buy the replacement solenoid because they are no longer
made (nor the exact starter for that matter). Of course, most new starters are
reduction gear type which use less electrical current for starting. I ended up
going with a Hitachi starter and solenoid to replace the original Yanmar
starter and solenoid and I am very happy with the change and NO more
intermittent starting problems!
