Common failures & inspection points

Piston rod scoring risk due to heavy scavenge space dirt accumulation
Cylinder liner wear and ovality development requiring periodic measurement via micrometer in port-starboard and forward-aft positions
Turbocharger oil starvation and contamination (>90% of turbo failures) - requires monitoring lube oil quality and pressure
Water or fuel in scavenge space (leak detection through piston inspection at BDC) - indicates potential head gasket or fuel valve seat leakage
Fuel injection system wear requiring maintenance - Bergen standard practice includes complete cylinder head overhaul kits available with 3-piece conrod design
