Did the same happen after running 1 & 3, eventually? I mean, did the common 1+2 breaker stays on with 1+3 running, and did it trip shortly after...
Sorry to hear that. Can you remember what sort of temp the coolant reached, and possibly also oil temp if available? Besides, for how long...
+1. The opposite scenario of an engine overheat for some other reason, melting the heater as a consequence, is totally implausible. Temp gauge and...
You must be tired of writing that. :D
As I recall, high idle in that engine is set at the max rated RPM +20, not +100. I can't swear to be correct, but I am sure you can now see the...
I'm struggling a bit with your reasoning. I mean, I can't rule out some engine problem obviously, but in principle if the engines reach the rated...
Guilty as charged, your Honor! :)
If the photos are anything to go by, you can say that again! The model above the galley is lovely, by the way.
Which part of "you could replace the 40A breakers with 30A ones" in my post #2 was confusing enough to understand the opposite? o_O
Yup, that's another possibility, also because usually compressors vibrate a bit, particularly while cycling on/off. I'd be surprised if Pascal...
Why? The rated absorption is 23A each, and Pascal said that usually they are actually pulling 42A combined, which means 21A each on average. How...
Mmm... A puzzling situation indeed. No other ideas at the moment, I'm afraid. But I'll follow this thread with interest, because I'm curious to...
Ideally, it would be nice to have two clamp on meters, and leave one on them on each line (#1 and #2), checking the respective peaks the next time...
Considering your engines preference, your need for three cabins and your beam restrictions, you'd better check out the Ferretti 500. You might be...
I'm not up to speed on their current range, but I guess you are right. The brand new Ferretti 500 is QSB 6.7 powered though, and while I haven't...
That does sound astronomical also for a full CAC removal and cleaning, but I know nothing about service costs in your area. Besides, I've yet to...
What should you use to answer this question and also to take a pee onboard?
In principle, I see your point, and I always maintained that the best marine diesels are the ones which are regularly and properly serviced,...
I know, that's why I said that the Ferretti powerplant is better and more reliable. Chalk and cheese springs to mind, when comparing the VP D13 to...
Did you actually try the latter? And if yes, was she pods or shafts powered? As with any other boat offering both types of transmission, the hull...
