"I have just bought a 1980 Br
"I have just bought a 1980 Bruce Roberts ketch with a 4108 fitted. The seller told me it was difficult to start when hot. He's changed the lift pump and filters and it ran smoothly on a sea trial. (& more quietly than I remember of others I've come across!)
The hot oil pressure was about 20psi at idle, 60psi otherwise; it started after a few seconds of cranking and 30secs of glow plug when cold.
thanks, Ian"
