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.

How to get the engine running when things go wrong!
This is for the novice who owns a yacht, motorboat or canal boat with an engine under 100hp. It takes you through preventative maintenance, and troubleshooting when things go wrong. Written in easy to understand terms. It was inspired by the RYA Deisel Engine course.
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 worksFuelAirCoolingLubricationElectrical systemsInstallationLaying upLong passagesMaintenance log
This second edition has been revised in the light of the author's extensive blue water cruising.
