Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of an Open 66, currently on the hard in North Borneo, completes the installation and initial startup of a new Nanni diesel engine.0:16 The refit process involves installing a custom polycarbonate control panel, a new gear lever requiring fiberglass modification to the hull, and a dual-valve RACOR fuel filter system designed to allow filter changes without re-bleeding the fuel lines.4:40 The engine installation requires filling the cooling system with 1.5 liters of coolant and adding 7.5 liters of high-quality oil.5:41 To prime the fuel system, the crew uses manual pumps to bleed air from the lines at multiple purge points until diesel flows clearly.9:53 After verifying the electrical connections for the glow plugs and starter motor, the engine starts on the first attempt.15:54 The new engine operates with significantly less noise and vibration than the previous 28-horsepower unit, allowing for normal conversation even with the engine room door open.16:23
