Nigel Calder, a diesel mechanic of many years’ experience, a good writer, and perceptive teacher, has written a guide that is clear, logical, and acutally interesting. A boatowner born with a monkey wrench in his hand will find Marine Diesel Engines useful and agreeable; a mechanical illiterate will find it a godsend. Here in nine extensively illustrated chapters is everything you need to keep you diesel engine running cleanly and efficiently–saving you a world of frustration, discomfort, and even peril, not to mention time-and-a-half weekend mechanics’ charges. “One of the best books on marine diesels to appear in some time.”–Ocean Navigator “The most up-to-date and readable book we’ve seen on the subject.”–Sailing World “Even if you never intend to put a spanner near your engine, and know your mechanic’s home phone number by heart, this book deserves a place on any diesel-powered boat.”–Motor Boat & Yachting, London “Clear, logical, and even interesting to read.”–Cruising World
