Hi everyone..
Im after some advice on this engine..
Altough its got a very clean hull, And has been serviced recently.
Im only achieving 4300rpm at WOT.. Should be 4500rpm..
Is this anything to worry about?
It starts and runs fine, never skips a beat..
BUT, i checked the pre-filter (The service engineer didn't)and that had sand and sludge, also some black looking red diesel at the bottom..
So this could of caused issues in the injectors??
Im going to Re-service it myself,
Also i dont think the stern gland has had anything done for ages,so hopefully no horrors under there..
I've heard its the same as a perkins / montego 2.0 TD..
also any ideas where i could locally (If poss) source cheaper parts then volvo..
All filters, New oil, And new gearbox oil,coolant.. And if i could use this oil..
