What to do if my MTU 8 V 2000 M70 does not turn when starter is actuated?
If the MTU Engine doesn't turn when the starter is activated, the solutions include charging or replacing the battery and checking if the cable connections are properly secured.
Why MTU 8 V 2000 M70 Engine does not reach full-load speed?
If the MTU Engine does not reach full-load speed, you should open the shut-off valve before the fuel prefilter completely. Also, check the vessel's loading condition and reduce the load if necessary. Ensure the vessel is properly trimmed, clean the engine, align the rudder, or consider replacing components.
What causes black exhaust gas from MTU 8 V 2000 M70?
If the exhaust gas from the MTU Engine is black, check the signal ring position of the service indicator.
What causes white exhaust gas from MTU 8 V 2000 M70 Engine?
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.
What causes high charge-air temperature in MTU Engine?
If the charge-air temperature is too high in the MTU Engine, check the fans and air supply/ventilation ducts.
