In clear, jargon-free English, it explains how a diesel engine works, how to look after it, and takes into account developments in engine technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book explains how the engine uses simple processes to convert fuel to power, and then looks at the various sub-systems that allow those processes to take place. It also provides advice on tools, winterising, along with hints, tips, and helpful fault-finding tables. Systems covered include: fuel, air, cooling, oil, electrical, propeller and transmission, and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis fifth edition has been thoroughly updated and illustrated with new full-colour photos and diagrams.

This combines with the use of electronics (as opposed to mechanics) to control it, thereby meeting the need for cleaner, greener engines to meet emissions regulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Strongly recommended for anyone who has anything to do with the diesel engine”\u003c\/em\u003e – Nautical Magazine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“A winner”\u003c\/em\u003e – Classic Boat\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“The next best thing to taking the course itself”\u003c\/em\u003e – Motor Boats Monthly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47470028718316,"sku":"9781472955401","price":34.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781472955401-adlard-coles-book-of-diesel-engines.jpg?v=1775207375"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/melanie-bartlett.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
