[Starting Problems]

Hi mross,

I was referring to the lever which closes the cylinder.

 

[Starting Problems]

Dear fellow boaters,

I am fairly new to this forum and hope you can help me with your knowledge.

Recently my oil feed pipe leaked so I dismantled it, sent it to the RN Diesel Engine Company who kindly fixed it and put it all back together yesterday. 

When I am turning the ignition it starts up running but as soon as I close the top and let geo of the key, the engine stops.

I have bleed the fuel pipe at the diesel filter and the piston, so do not assume the problem is there (or is it?).

What I have noticed though is the oil pressure is not going higher than 20 lb/inch while in ignition but I used to go way higher,

Could this mean there is still air in the oil pipes? If so, how would I fix this? I have not seen any possibility to drain it.

Any advice is highly appreciated.

Thank you,

Max of Baildon
