How To Buy A Used Boat - 10 Basic Engine Checks by Phil Marks
When you buy a used boat, you want to know if there are any engine problems (unless you are buying a salvaged vessel). Inboard diesel engines are tried and tested technology, but in a marine environment a lot can go wrong. So how do you discover if the engine is good? Ideally, you should sea-test the boat you intend buying, but there are several simple engine checks you can make on first pass.
If the boat is ashore, and water cooled (not all are), then a cooling Water Supply will have to be arranged (if the boat has keel cooling then other ways will have to be found). This can be done with a hose pipe (you might need a big one), but make sure that the seller (or his agent) agrees, and get them to do it. OK, so we have a cooling system arranged.
1. Does the engine look rust-free and well looked after? An owner who cares will have a clean and well painted engine, so that any leaks are immediately noticed. If the engine looks poorly maintained, then it probably is.
2. Look at the lub oil dipstick - is the oil clean and is the level up to the mark?
3. Are there signs of water in the lub oil?
4. If you can get access, check the transmission fluid - level and colour - grey or milky means there's water in it.
5. Does the engine have an hours meter? Check the hours meter. Yes, they can be faked or replaced, but most owners are genuine. As a guide, a really good truck engine which is really well maintained will do a million miles without trouble. At an average speed of say, forty miles per hour, that's twenty five thousand hours.
6. Does the engine turn over and start easily? A battery shouldn't be flat if the seller wants to make a sale. It could mean that the Starter Motor is faulty, or cables are in poor condition, and that the flat battery is an excuse.
7. Is there a cloud of blue smoke when the engine first starts? If there is, then this could indicate, for example, that the valve guides are worn. With diesels, some trace blue smoke is inevitable, but it should not be like a thick fog.
8. Check that the alternator is charging properly - the charge light should have gone out, siren stopped and the ammeter indicating charging current.
9. As soon as the engine is properly warmed up (check the Temperature Gauge - diesels run at about 82 deg C (180 deg F), does it sound right to your ear? Without being able to load the engine - driving the boat - it may not warm up properly. After about twenty minutes under load (even on the mooring), then the engine should be up to working temperature. If you cannot get the engine warmed up, then that could be a problem. Engines running cold will have excessive wear. Running over temperature is bad too.
10. What color is the exhaust gas? If it's white then that's not a good sign. Some blue smoke is fine - a slight haze would be right. Black smoke indicates unburnt fuel and could be a sign of injection problems (note that black smoke when the throttle is wide open is not usuallya problem).
These are just a sample of over fifteen basic engine checks that you can do when assessing an engine - and we haven't reached turbos yet.
The author has been refitting boats for over 50 years, power and sail. There's a whole lot more advise about how to buy a used boat and you can get the full list of his own engine checks at boat engine checks. Save yourself time and maybe even money. A lot could depend on a trusty engine!
