[AT] yanmar

[charlie hill]

Just for the sake of the conversation would someone describe the issues with 
a grey market unit Vs. a made for USA sale unit.  Obviously there is a 
warranty issue but the unit in question isn't under warranty so what would 
be other problems?  I take it that some parts will NOT interchange with the 
"USA" versions.
