Common failures & inspection points

Piston ring blow-by due to carbon deposits: thick carbon deposits prevent free ring movement, lead to dark spots on cylinder wall and blo

Visual inspection through scavenge ports: check rings for freedom of movement, inspect upper liners for black spots; chemically clean if required

Crosshead/crankpin ridge wear: surface grooves from bearing wear; depth 5–50 µm requires polishing, above 50 µm requires undercutting

Check outside micrometer around and along pin for conicity/oversize; document ridge >5 µm and arrange polishing/undercutting

Injector nozzle coking and deposits: thermal decomposition of diesel >300°C causes coking; LSFO with up to 60 ppm catalytic sludge aggravates problem; red

Inspectors check: exhaust gas quality (soot content), injection noise (crackling sound with coking), injection pressure build-up in test stand

Exhaust valve seat wear and erosion: leaking valves (Stellite-coated seats) eroded by hot exhaust gas, particularly in unfavourable combustion conditions

Visual inspection of valve cone/seat for scratches and erosion patterns; leak test with helium/nitrogen; grey lapping print must be complete

Crankshaft bearing wear and journal grooves: contamination from abrasive in lubricating oil causes scratches around journal; centre section particularly affected; is

Check copper coating on bearing shells with surface roughness gauge; curve gauge for journal profiles; arrange undercutting for grooves >0.1 mm or ridge >50 µm
