Diesel Engines

Publisher: Adlard Coles Nautical, 3rd ed.
Publication Date: 2005

A very complicated piece of machinery has been broken down to very clearly and simply explained sections. If the engine and its principals of working are understood and a malfunction arises, follow the sequence of operation and the cause of the malfunction will be located.

The illustrations and diagrams are very clear and well-annotated. All the component parts and systems covering fuel, air and electrics are described in detail and their functions together nwith their maintenance are clearly explained.

There is no doubt that this publication is a mine of information and a copy should be kept on board at all times, especially when at sea. – PDW
