The diesel engine is by far the most popular form of propulsive power for boats of all sizes, whether power or sail as it is more reliable and fuel efficient than the petrol engine. The book is suitable for all DIY engineers and covers: how the diesel engine works; the fuel system; lubrication; cooling systems; electrical systems; turbo-chargers and after coolers; marinization; and on-board tools and spares. 103 black & white photographs, 36 line drawings.
