YOSC's own Marine Diesel Engine "Guru" - Richard Magnay, has summarised his notes which were prepared for the very useful and practical talks he gave to us at our Monthly Meeting on this subject.
There is a Summary of the likely causes of common engine problems with suggested remedial actions plus a Check Sheet to ensure all the appropriate checks are carried out in the right sequence during the Laying-up at the end of the season and for Re-commissioning before launching.
Following these guideline will help to prevent engine problems and ensure sweet and reliable running throughout the Sailing Season
To help you understand what things look like and where they are located, Richard has provided a set of clear drawings, diagrams and illustrations.
