The exhaust temperature of a
cylinder increases
The air flaps in the scavenge air receiver are
dirty or defective.
Clean, overhaul or replace
the air flaps.
The injection nozzles are worn. Replace with the spare kit.
The scavenge ports in the cylinder liner are
dirty.

Fire in the Scavenge Air
Spaces.
The exhaust valve has a leak. Grind the valve seat and head
(see the Maintenance

The exhaust thermometer of a related
cylinder is defective.
Replace the exhaust
thermometer.
Exhaust temperature of a
cylinder decreases
Injection nozzles are in an unsatisfactory
condition. A nozzle tip is broken.
Replace the nozzle tip.
The related cylinder receives less fuel
because of a leakage in the high pressure
pipes or injection valves.
Grind the sealing faces or

control system decreased to prevent too
much load in heavy sea.
A procedure is not necessary.
Usual operation.
