Service by region

Water temperature, salinity, silt, season and distance from parts all change what a marine diesel needs and how often. Pick your region for local conditions, then use the same questions wherever you are.

Five questions to ask any technician

  1. Is the person doing the work trained on my engine family, or is it being subcontracted?
  2. What does the quote include — consumables, waste disposal, slipway or berth time, sea trial?
  3. Which parts does the job need, and are they held locally or coming from interstate?
  4. Who commissions the work afterwards, and what does the handover cover?
  5. What happens to the price if you find something worse once it is apart?
