Inspection

Inspector Detail ✓ verified

Common issues

  • Turbolader Verschmutzung durch Rußablagerungen: Fouling und Blockierung durch Kohlenstoffablagerungen
  • Fuel system leaks and contamination due to high-pressure common rail system
  • Cylinder liner and piston ring wear due to high compression ratios and fuel types
  • Exhaust valve and seat wear due to high exhaust gas temperatures
  • Lubrication oil contamination and degradation due to high engine loads and temperatures
  • Cooling system leaks and corrosion due to seawater and high temperatures
  • Starting air system leaks and moisture ingress

Inspection checklist

  • Turbolader and exhaust system for signs of fouling and blockage
  • Fuel system for leaks and contamination
  • Cylinder liners and piston rings for wear and damage
  • Exhaust valves and seats for wear and damage
  • Lubrication oil system for contamination and degradation
  • Cooling system for leaks and corrosion
  • Starting air system for leaks and moisture ingress
  • Engine mounts and vibration dampers for condition and alignment
  • Crankshaft and camshaft for wear and damage

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
