Hello! So today we are going to be looking at the most ess in a marine diesel engine — that its fuel injector! Fuel injectors work like little sprayers, helping deliver just the right amount of fuel to your engine at the precise time it needs it. Now, this is very vital since there can be no working engine without fuel! Consider how a car needs gas to move, the engine in your marine diesel also requires fuel, and the fuel injector ensures that it gets just the right amount.
A few parts that work together to create a fuel injector. The first part is a nozzle the small hole through which the fuel comes So this nozzle is very critical because it controls the amount of fuel that flows into your engine. We then have a needle valve. This valve acts like a door that opens and closes to allow fuel inside. The valve opens when the engine requires more fuel, it closes when it doesn't. Inside the fuel injector, you have additional pieces assisting in harmonizing everything with one another. Each of those components functions uniquely and if one component fails to operate efficiently it could lead the entire engine to malfunction.
Remote Location -- Fuel injectors play a crucial role in the operation of a marine diesel engine! They (1) Assist the engine in turning and giving the strength to push it from place to place. Through the fuel injectors - if they are not working well, your engine might sound rough or it simply does not have enough power to do its job right. You can imagine how trying to ride a bicycle that has a flat is, well, it simply does not work. Likewise, fuel injectors can be dirtier than a pigsty and if they are clogged or dirty, it would cause great problems to its engine. The engine may be hard to start or fail to run. This is why cleaning the fuel injectors is vital!
So what do you do to keep your fuel injectors in good working order? Tip 1: Always use clean fuel Dirty fuel can become stuck in the injectors. As you do not want to drink muddy water, your engine also does not want dirty fuel. Regular professional inspection and cleaning of fuel injectors is also recommended. This will also help identify all the problems before they grow larger ones. Contact your mechanic immediately if you notice any issues with the way your engine operates — such as odd noises or a lack of power. So, the earlier you do that, the best it is for your engine.
For older marine diesel engines, consider changing out the fuel injectors. Luckily, newer fuel injectors can better help your engine function during time. They are sometimes built with using less fuel in mind, yet still give the same power. Which means that you will save on this for a period of time! Fuel injectors are also more reliable nowadays and last a lot longer, so a fresh set will give you peace of mind as well. It feels like getting new toy and your old one was not working, it just makes everything fun!
