"I have Volvo Tamd41 p with sa
"I have Volvo Tamd41 p with salt water in the head that seems to have entered back through the turbo from the exhaust side. The motor is seized, I have removed the head. There is quite lot of damage to the turbo (seized and corroded), the head has had water sitting in it, the pistons have had water on them and the rings are corroded, the water in the sump was clear (tasted salty) and separate from the nice looking engine oil. The exhaust exits the transom above the water line and has loop 3 ‘above water line. The 1998 motor has only got 720 hrs on it as it was winterised @ 125 hrs in dry dock for many years. The engine was last run for short time bout six weeks ago, started immediately and was shut down with no notable noises. Has anyone ever had any experience of similar problem? I know I need to rebuild it but I want to know fully as possible how this happened. Grateful for any advice. Thanks Neil"
