During the past few years the performance of my 1996 Bayliner 3388 with 150 turbo diesels has slowly but surely deteriorated to the point at which it is not possible to reach 3,000 rpm at WOT. This situation persists even when the bottom and props are perfectly clean and the boat is lightly loaded.
The engines currently have about 850 hours useage and the props, which were supplied by Premier Propellors, Bremerton in 2006, are 20 X 21 (port) and 20 X 20.2 (Stbd).
I would appreciate any advice from members regarding an appropriate course of action. For example..... valve adjustment, fuel injection/timing overhaul and adjustment, etc. etc?
Thanks in anticipation.
