Injectors

Continuing to knock things off the boat list, today I removed the fuel injectors for the main Perkins engine. inspecting and servicing the injectors is a PM item (Preventative Maintenance) which is part of a routine rolling schedule that we keep based on location, use, and parts availability.
Good thing I did as the tips were caked in carbon and crudded up with diesel gum. This can cause trouble with starting, rough idle, excess fuel burning, and dirty emissions.
The engine recently hit 5000 hours, and we want to do our best to keep her running happy for 5000 more! All 225 turbocharged horses!
