Lately I've witnessed the Yamato fix 2 sys damage points in 3 weeks.
2 weeks and 5 days without any repairs and then 2 consecutive days with single point repairs.

You don't understand the Navy supply system. Even though the spare part is available down the road from a local merchant at a quarter of the price, you can't go buy it. You have to fill out the requisition with it's Federal Supply Code for Manufacture, the National Item Identification Number, etc. Mechanicsburg then processes the request and ships you the spare part from some warehouse halfway around the world.

In your case, it took 2 weeks 4 days for the paperwork to go through and the part to ship to you. The last two days was when the repair techs got the part and installed it.

Does 1 repair = 1 less damage point?
Is there are priority for making repairs, i.e., fire > floatation > system damage?

Ships will always repair damage in this sequence: Fire, flooding, Sys.

I think that's usually the case, but on rare occasions I've seen a ship repair sys and flooding in the same turn.

Has anyone had damage repair itself when the ship was NOT disbanded?

Yes. In stock, the Japanese TF2 is a replenishment TF with TKs. I never disband it because you can't reform it. When the sys damage creeps up, I'd dock it in the port of Tokyo and wait for it to repair all sys damage to 0. Happens every time.

Iv'e had some ships repair themselves while on their way to a port/repairyard.
Gotta love Allied damage control.
