Frequently Asked Questions
What areas do you service?
Whitsunday Diesel & Marine provides a wide variety of mechanical services for Emerald and the surrounding areas, including Comet and Wyuna. Contact us to confirm whether we service your specific location.
What causes a marine gearbox to slip?
A slipping marine gearbox can be caused by worn clutch plates, low oil levels, or damaged gears. Insufficient or degraded oil reduces lubrication, increasing friction and causing gears to slip or engage improperly. Contaminated or overheated oil can lead to seal failure and loss of pressure, affecting shifting performance. Worn-out clutch plates may fail to engage properly, leading to power loss or erratic propulsion. Loose or misaligned linkages can also prevent smooth operation. Regular gearbox servicing, including oil changes and checking for leaks, ensures reliable performance. Detecting early signs of slippage prevents further damage to drivetrain components and avoids costly repairs.
How does carbon buildup affect engine performance?
Carbon buildup occurs when unburned fuel deposits accumulate inside combustion chambers, intake valves, and injectors. Over time, excessive deposits can restrict airflow, reduce fuel atomisation, and lead to engine knocking, misfires, and power loss. Carbon buildup in diesel engines can clog EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valves, leading to poor emissions control and reduced efficiency. In petrol engines, dirty intake valves can disrupt the air-fuel mixture, causing hesitation and rough idling. Regular fuel system cleaning and injector servicing help prevent excessive deposits. Using high-quality fuel and following recommended maintenance schedules reduces carbon buildup, preserving engine efficiency and extending its lifespan.
What are the signs of failing glow plugs in a diesel engine?
Glow plugs play a crucial role in cold starting a diesel engine by preheating the combustion chamber. Failing glow plugs can cause hard starts, increased smoke during startup, rough idling, and misfires. If an engine cranks for an extended period before starting, weak glow plugs may not be reaching the required temperature. White smoke from the exhaust at startup may indicate incomplete combustion due to insufficient preheating. Poor fuel efficiency and loss of power can also result from glow plug issues. Replacing worn glow plugs at recommended intervals ensures smooth starts, reduces emissions, and maintains peak diesel engine performance.
