  If the Yanmar Engine does not start, it could be due to several reasons. You might be out of diesel fuel, in which case you should refuel the system. Alternatively, the diesel fuel you're using might be improper, so replace it with the recommended type. A clogged fuel filter could also be the culprit, so try replacing it. If none of these solutions work, the issue might be poor fuel injection, and you should consult an authorized Yanmar industrial engine dealer or distributor.

  If your Yanmar Engine is producing white or black exhaust smoke, there could be several reasons. If the smoke is black, try reducing the load on the engine.

  If the indicator turns on while the Yanmar Engine is running, it could be due to a low or too high engine oil level, so check and adjust the oil level as necessary. Another possible cause is a clogged engine oil filter; if so, replace the engine oil filter element.
