Hi! I have two engines 2725E in my workshop that need to be rebuild. Problem is that in my country (Croatia) there's no one selling parts for these engines. Does anyone know where can I get parts like gasket set, piston rings, bearings etc.

Thanks for a very informative, interesting site.
I have just had the 4-cylinder 2700 series diesel (2700E-6015-B on block, 2700E-6450-B on tappet cover) in my boat rebuilt and would like some advice about the oil I should use after running in. Prior to me purchasing the boat and up until the rebuild it was using BP Vanellus C3 Mono 30. Someone has recommended Morris Golden Film SAE30. Any recommendations would be much appreciated.
