Presents a survival guide for the owners of diesel-powered watercraft of all types and sizes. Using the premise that the reader knows little about engines of any kind, Thiel gives a brief and painless overview of how diesel engines work and outlines an easily followed operating guide and preventive maintenance procedure that will dramatically extend the lives of marine engines. This book is not about how to conduct major repairs or how to rebuild a diesel. Instead, the emphasis is on preventing problems from occurring in the first place.
