schlackoff, NObody "cleans" fuel injectors on a diesel the night before leaving
on an ocean trip, and NObody cleans the glow plugs either. btw, wanna tell us
just how glow plugs are cleaned by the crew?
also, why in hell do fishing boats "often do a teardown" (your words, see
below) on a engine to do a major overhaul (as you as described, see below)
"between such trips"? (your words, see below)
Because they put so many hours on it at a time. Because they depend on
their single engine to get them out and back over thousands of miles at
a time. Because the engines we're talking about are made to be easily
serviced with replacable wear items.
Your mistake is assuming that he meant "spark" plugs when he said plugs
I made no mistake at all. the author made the mistake, I just noticed it. you
schlackoff, on the other hand, STILL are not sure that maybe the author was
right and the crew cleaned the plugs the night before they left.
The author may have made a mistake, and may not have made a mistake.
You just can't read, that's all. You added "spark" in front of plugs
when it wasn't there. So no matter what the author said, you were wrong
and like always, just can't admit it.
