1.5 WHITE SMOKE
After travelling in the boat, fairly slowly with no
troubles for a day and a little bit, the engine
started blowing rather a lot of white smoke after
about an hour travelling. Having been told that this
was probably the injectors, we continued, but I kept
an eye on the temperature gauge.

SMOKING
PETTER ENGINE
I have a 50` narrow boat now with a old (1946)? AV2M
Petter. The problem is I used the existing short funnel to
vent the diesel exhaust up. This discharges 4` in front of
the helmsman and about level with the top of your head.
The white smoke that emits stings your eyes and smells.

BLUE
SMOKE FROM KINGFISHER ENGINE
I have a Kingfisher KD16 in my narrowboat which at
time leaves a substantial blue/white emission across the
canal. At other times the exhaust emission is barely
noticeable.

WHITE
& BLACK SMOKE FROM BMC ENGINE
My 2.5 BMC diesel engine is putting out white and
black smoke, has lost a bit of power and tends to overheat
slightly more easily than before. I have come to the
conclusion that it is the injectors. Do you think this
sounds right?

SMOKING BMC
My BMC 1.5 diesel marine engine is emitting too much
smoke. I have just had reconditioned injectors fitted to
the engine, and it is now kicking out lots of white smoke
whilst it is idling, once under load it almost disappears..

FUEL SUPPLY QUERY
I have just had a new engine fitted and the main fuel
supply pipe comes out from the duct on the swim plate
and then hangs in the air for about 12" to 18"
before it is connected to the flexible. The connector is
also hanging in the air and the pipe is copper. Is this
OK? Click to see

DIESEL FUMES
We have looked at a Creigton 4-berth cabin cruiser and are
thinking of buying it. We noticed when the boat was
running, this rear cabin became full of diesel fumes and a
'haze' of blueish fumes/smoke was in the cabin, which we
could see. Click to see

BMC DIESEL SMOKE
The engine fires up and runs fine at all engine speeds,
obviously it is not under load as it is out of the boat.
The engine is however giving blue smoke at idle and low
revs, this seems to clear at 200 revs and above.

BLACK SOOT FROM ENGINE AND
NO POWER
I have a 1990
Compac sailboat with a Yanmar 1GM10 engine. 6 months ago I
motored into our bay for 30 minutes and the engine ran
perfectly fine. When I decided to turn around after only
about 5 minutes (due to high waves) the engine would not
rev above 2400 rpm ... Click to see
