Reseña del editor

Most sailing vessels and motorboats have a marine diesel engine. This book will help the owner keep this vital piece of equipment going. It covers; how it works, fuel, air, cooling, lubrication, electrics, installation and winter lay up. This second edition is fully revised and now covers turbochargers and long--distance voyaging (very demanding on engines). Don Seddon is both an engineer and a sailor. This makes him uniquely qualified to write this book.

Contraportada

There is no hard shoulder afloat, and no mechanic around the corner. If your engine breaks down, you'll have to fix it. Open DIESEL TROUBLESHOOTER, dig out your toolbox, and go to work with confidence.

In this book Don Seddon majors on the essentials - good engine practice, preventative maintenance and troubleshooting. That will be enough for some owners, but for those who want to know more it also covers:

• How it works
• Fuel
• Air
• Cooling
• Lubrication
• Electrical systems
• Installation
• Laying up
• Long passages
• Maintenance log

This second edition has been revised in the light of the author's extensive blue water cruising.

DIESEL TROUBLESHOOTER has been inspired by the RYA Diesel Engine Course.
