The past week consisted of a long service (that I am still working on) on a boat, some simple R&R, and more services. On the long service project, I spotted 3 hoses (two fuel and one oil) that were very chaffed and could have caused fatal engine damage in the near future. Late in the week I stepped in on some injector testing some of the other employees were working on. I learned how injectors work (on a technical level) and got a simple breakdown of their components. I documented 30.42 hours this last week for a grand total of week 346.69 hours.
Checking spray pattern of the atomized fuel.
Burnt injector tip.
Chafing on a fuel line. This wasn't even the worst of it.
I know you had your safety glasses on...
ReplyDeleteIt is a good thing to know about injectors. We need to be very aware of the pressures and dangers involved. Hyper-aware.
