Default Ya gotta love diesels

Opened the cooling water intake seacocks, turned the batteries switch to
"on" ... gave the throttles a little bump up over idle, turn the keys and
..... varoom !

Both engines hardly turned over once and they lit off and purred. Little or
no smoke to speak of. It was as if they were just running 5 minutes ago
and I shut them down for a minute.

They had not run since last September.

I start getting the itch hearing them run and the sound and vibration in the
boat.
