I am looking at buying a new boat with a M2030 Volvo diesel engine.
The situation in the Canadian Eastern Maritime is that the only Volvo dealer
makes his living with lobster fishermen and carry no part for small diesel.
If I buy that boat equipment with a Volvo diesel engine I will have to carry
parts on board. Not to mention that I will require that shop manual and
learn how to use it.
I would appreciate to receive some guide lines from Volvo owners as to what
to carry on board for spares and what to train myself for maintenance and
emergency repairs. TIA
Key spares include water pump impellers with gaskets, belts, filters.
You might also want to consider injectors, alternator and starter.
