Replacment Turbo on Volvo Penta
Lady Emma had both engines serviced last month.
During the work it was found that the port side engines turbo had seized. As Lady Emma had only been pootling about at river speeds this had not been noticed and also probably contributed to the problem. This friday we are having a reconditioned turbo fitted and also a few other sheduled jobs. One of which is changing the raw water strainers from the Volvo fit originals to Vetus ones. These ones are clear which allow us to visually see that water is running through them without having to shut the sea cocks off and remove the lids. Saturday and Sunday after the work has been carried out, Dad and myself will be doing some high speed runs across Breydon Water to make sure all is running as should. Weather doesn't look too promising but I will try and do some photos and videos and post them on here. Naturally we will be mooring overnight on the Saturday to take on essential supplies....Food and Beer We shall be staying at the Surlingham Ferry Inn should anyone on here want to say hello

Turbo replacement was held up due to wrong gasket being supplied.
It has now been done along with the raw water strainers and all things going to plan we shall be taking Lady Emma out next weekend for a shake down run and beer and food testing session Untitled by Jeff Cranwell, on Flickr Untitled by Jeff Cranwell, on Flickr

Tab washers need bending over on compressor housing.

Not sure I see any tab washers ?
The turbo unit is direct from Volvo Penta so one would hope it is reconditioned to correct specification.......But then again

The tab washers are to the R.H.S of the picture .They are left loose by the O.E.M for ease of alignment.A thorough engineer should tab them over once fitted .

I’m up at the boat tomorrow so I will take a closer look. Are they just bent over with pliers ? If so I shall do it myself. Cheers, Jeff.

Cheers Les,
I sort of thought they would be, not sure how they could be bent over though as they look rather thick/solid!
