(Shen44), to say:

Subject: The Andrea Gail had a gasoline engine
From: "Steve Daniels, Seek of Spam"



BTW, I seem to remember an old CAT tractor whose engine started as a

gasoline
engine, and when warmed up, converted to diesel....could be wrong.


There are some old tractors that use a gasoline engine as a
starter motor. You'd start the gasoline engine and then couple
its output through a clutch to turn the diesel engine, getting it
to start. I guess that was because they didn't carry enough
electrical power to use an electric motor to turn the diesel, or
maybe they did it that way because it's Just Cool.


I've seen what you are mentioning above, but for some reason, I remember this
as the main engine was started on and as a gasoline engine, then switched.
It was an old Cat dozer, and as stated previously, I could be wrong.


A diesel engine has a much higher compression ratio than does a
gasoline engine. Not only does this make the diesel more
efficient, but it's what drives the ignition stroke. The
compression stroke on a diesel compresses air, and the diesel oil
is injected at the top of the stroke. The compressed air is so
hot it ignites the oil, providing power.

If you injected gasoline into that environment, you'd get
detonation so serious it would probably destroy the engine.

he
compression stroke on a diesel compresses air,


it does on a gas engine, too.

The compressed air is so
hot it ignites the oil, providing power.


it is doens't ignite, no power of course.

If you injected gasoline into that environment,


multi-fuel engine don't work that way.

you'd get
detonation so serious it would probably destroy the engine.


the problem on a multi-fuel engine is the low compression ration.

For sure it did, for the author specificly mentioned the crew of the
ill-fated
vessel was so anxious about the trip that they went to the boat the

night
before leaving to clean the plugs on the engine.

One sentence, just one sentence, but it clearly shows the Andrea Gail

had
a
gasoline engine. At least in the First Edition (for those out there who

THAT's it? That's what you're basing your assertion that the Andrea
Gail had a gas engine on? No mention of the type of engine? No mention
of fuel? Jax, FYI, diesel engines can have plugs also. So it could
have been a diesel engine and the author not even be wrong in his
statement. If he had actually said it was a gas engine, he surely would
have been wrong.

Since you know so much about gas engines, what model gas engine do you
think it had?

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

just how glow plugs are cleaned by the crew?

also, why in hell do fishing boats "often do a teardown" (your words, see

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.

I made no mistake at all. the author made the mistake, I just noticed it.

you

After 800 hours the engineer would probably check plenty of things
before putting on another 800 hours. It's not very hard to do on those
boats and well worth the time. It's probably his main job while in

Did it specifically state *SPARK plugs*? There are many, many kinds of
"plugs", you know.


In a diesel? that can be cleaned?


Yes.



Why do you need a "couple dozen" of them? Where does the writer say
that they cleaned a couple of dozen of these plugs? Now, I'll tell you
about some possible *plugs*. Cooling system, sometimes has several
plugs in the plumbing, at various places, mostly to drain. Electrical
connections, for glow plugs, instrumentation, possibly starter. Was
there an air compressor running off of the engine? That would indeed
have plugs.
Now, YOUR turn. Please show where they said "spark" plugs.

cay lif bill, the irony on the original statement should not have been lost on
you from the get-go, and if perhaps you missed it you STILL should have come up
to speed by the 8th or 10th reiteration. wake up, dude.

wayne, you seem to know something about that particular engine. would you mind
explaining to "steve" just where all those crew-cleanable plugs are on that
engine?

Thanks. "steve" seems to draw a blank spot when asked.

schlackoff, you are saying that a nervouse drunken fishing boat crew would --
could? -- clean the fuel injectors the night before sailing?

why would you say anything like that? have you no idea what is involved in
cleaning fuel injectors? Also, do you think injectors are cleaned just for the
hell of it?

schlackoff, wanna tell us why glow plugs might be cleaned by drunken fishing
boat crew the night before sailing?

schlackoff, wanna tell us which electrical connections on a diesel engine are
referred to as "plugs", and also why such might be cleaned the night before
sailing by drunken fishing boat crew?

There you have it. Joxie claims it's impossible to clean a diesel
engine's injectors. Joxie claims it's impossible to clean glow plugs.
Joxie claims it's impossible to clean electrical connections.

hoary, you are wrong. shackie is not a bright guy. he *may* be brighter than
you, but by no means does that make him "a bright guy".

hoary, have you noticed that even rickie sluggs has been quiet on this thread.
Why, hoary, do you suppose that is?

Jax-Ass...puh-lease. I had a bowel movement this morning that had more
IQ than you. Give it up, and stop snorting home fuel oil, eh?

Oh...and Steve is a bright guy. You aren't.

Bye.
