If the MTU Engine doesn't turn when the starter is activated, you should charge or replace the battery. Also, check the cable connections to ensure they are properly secured. If problems persist after these checks, contact service.
What to do if MTU Engine exhaust gas is black?
If the MTU Engine exhaust gas is black, try cleaning the relevant components. If the issue continues, contact service.
What to do if MTU Engine does not reach nominal speed?
If the MTU Engine does not reach nominal speed, try cleaning it. Also replacement may be required.
What to do if MTU Engine turns but does not fire?
If the MTU Engine turns but doesn't fire, check the system. You might also need to vent the fuel system. If the problem persists, contact service.
What to do if MTU Engine exhaust gas is white?
If the exhaust gas from the MTU Engine is white, run the engine to reach operating temperature. Also check the fuel system on the fuel prefilter and drain the fuel prefilter. If the issue persists, contact service.
What to do if MTU Engine speed not steady?
If the MTU Engine speed is not steady, contact service. You can also vent the fuel system.
What to do if MTU Engine fires unevenly?
If the MTU Engine fires unevenly, vent the fuel system. If the problem persists, contact service.
Why is charge-air temperature too high in MTU Engine?
If the charge-air temperature is too high in your MTU Engine, check the fans and air supply/ventilation ducts. You can also use the MTU test kit to check it. If problems persist, contact service.
What to do if MTU Engine exhaust gas is blue?
If the MTU Engine exhaust gas is blue, drain the engine oil. If the issue continues, contact service.
What to do if charge-air pressure is too low in MTU Engine?
If the charge-air pressure is too low in your MTU Engine, clean it. If the issue persists, contact service.
