[C320-list] Fuel kill switch Yanmar

[Sandy Olson]

When trying to shut down my yanmar the other day I pulled up on the red
switch at the helm that cuts off fuel to stop the engine and the engine
did not stop.  It took me several tries to finally get it to work.
Obviously I need to adjust something but am not sure what.  Any
suggestions as to what I should check?

Thanks Karl,

I think that that this is my problem too. I tried tightening a couple of

bolts on the front of the engine and it seemed to help. It leaks less
oil 
but it still leaks some. I could try tightening some more but I am
afraid to 
over tighten them. It is possible that the seal needs to be replaced
which 
would be disappointing since I only have 165 hours on the engine.

Ken
