Oil & Fuel Coolant Filter Kit Diesel or Gas Engine for Yanmar tractors

[jlinn1]

I was just curious if anyone has installed coolant filter kits on their yanmar tractors and if they are worth giving a try, they seem to be cheap enough to try out......

I think that's way overkill, at least for the ones that don't even have a thermostat. The 70's Yanmars seem to have been designed to stand up to the old-school Japanese farmer who drains his radiator in cold weather and refills with ditch water when he wants to use the tractor. I don't think there's any problem there that a filter would remedy.

Thanks for the quick reply! Im a newbie to Yanmar tractors, and was just trying to live by that old credo'....."An ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure". I can see how it might be a little overkill now.
