"i have just purchased an 86 4
"i have just purchased an 86 41' cabin cruiser w/ some KATRINA rash. It has the TAMD41A engines, i have only had it out once to move it from one marina to another. On this 60 mile trip the engines beched out black smoke like a locamotive at all speeds. It has some type of "smoke limiter" butterfly vales in the exhaust manifold which are operated by electric solenoids (mine have been disconnected) while you would think this to be the obvious problem and i will have them in working order b 4 relaunching in NOV> i suspect that they only reduce the smoke under acceleration and not while at speed. The engines have only about 1200 hours on them. I am leaning toward a possible problem to d with to much fuel from the injector pump or its timing of the fuel delivery to the cylinders. I am pretty good withj the gas engines but have had little experience with diesel repair. Any help will be welcomed
thanks Rich Colano"
