Engine Challenges in Jupiter
Jupiter’s coastal environment presents specific challenges for marine diesel engines:
Saltwater Corrosion: Accelerated corrosion of cooling systems and exhaust components
Elevated Operating Temperatures: Due to poor heat exchanger operation
Fuel System Problems: Visual inspection of Racor filters for water, debris, or algae
Electrical Corrosion: Florida’s humid environment is tough on electrical connections
Cooling System Issues: Due to lack of maintenance
Our Jupiter surveys specifically target these regional concerns.
