Engine mounting in Lauersoog

Cylinder top to Volvo service


We have removed the cylinder top and it is now in service at Volvo shop. We got help of a mechanician.


 The new top came in few days, not new but the copper tubes were replaced in all cylinders. Kati tried to make breakfast to us in the hazzle.
Good bread and hot coffee for the mec also!


Official report:
We had a small leak in the first injector in our Volvo engine. As an old businessman who is making  the decisions fast and effectively. I said to mr. Harms , we change all of them.
My Sailor Mate and mr. Harms looked each other and  realised that we would not only touch the defect one but all of them.  Explanation: That means problems occur when we mount the top again. We have to plan the top.
So tools in our hands and work, HEAVY work. An hour later we had half of the engine dismounted. Ha haa who is going to mount it unless our trusted engine mechanician. We got valuable help from our old friend and harbourmaster, mr. Slagman in Lauwersoog. Many thanks to them.
