Wishing you all the best
Isn't that the new engine and wasn't it without turbo? You already changed the airfilter…would be strange to have "bad" injector already but not impossible
Safe travels
Hope you guys get some good luck. Be carefull and be wise.
Thoughts and prayers to you and the crew.
I'd take a look at the condition of the fuel injectors. Then, move on to the injector system (mechanical or electronic?). But, all diesels will smoke when a sudden heavy load is put on them. Good wishes on your passage to Panama.
We wish you well, sailing in Madeira.
Hey Capt. Because your fuel filters are new I wonder about the interliner of the exhaust hose flapping closed under load. Good planning to you .
Good Luck and stay safe.
Diesel engine with new air filter producing black smoke under load: Injector failure. At least one is "hanging" open and lets in too much diesel. That can't be burned and that is causing the smoke. As an experienced sailor you should know what to do.
Hello when you have time. I was wondering if you could let me know what type of sewing machine you would recommend? I have a lot of canvas work and isenglass as boating in Kawartha lakes. I want to do it myself and would greatly appreciate any advice on type of machine to buy. Used of course if I can find one. Thanks much appreciated Tammy
Look after yourselves and I am praying for your safety!
I wish you guys the best of luck. Stay as safe as you can. Hope you are back on the air ok soon.
Stuck open injectors take transmission fluid fill half the filter with transmission and the other half diesel fuel put back on engine and start engine and rev engine to 1100 rpm. THIS WILL free up the INJECTORS and LUBE UP TOP END and SET PISTON RINGS ECT. The Black Exhaust Smoke will clear up.
Couldn’t you get a mechanic to look at the engine?
Hello from Ontario, I think you’ve made the right decision and that’s to run from it Rick!
You’re in for a tough few days I’m sure. Keep us informed when you can. Stay safe!
So much for the brand new engine
do you get the smoke with the air filter off?
Good Luck Capt & C Crew.
the boat is full of brilliant characters, love all the crew, such a lovey team.
safe travels, fingers crossed all works out the best possible.
Love the Kapitan's sunglasses, which brand? thank you
