BIGGER ISN’T ALWAYS BETTER… 👀

When it comes to carburettor jets, the right size matters.

This outboard came into the workshop flooding, struggling to reach higher RPM and not running correctly. After some investigating, we found an incorrectly sized carburettor jet was allowing too much fuel through, creating an overly rich fuel mixture and causing the engine to choke under load.

It might only be a tiny component, but the jet plays an important role in controlling the amount of fuel delivered through the carburettor.

Too big = too much fuel
Too small = not enough fuel
Right size = correct fuel flow ✅

We replaced the incorrect jet with the correct size, tuned and tested the engine, and she’s now running good as gold 🔧

DO YOU KNOW THE 6 Ps? 👀

Prior Preparation Prevents Pretty Pricey Problems. 💸

When it comes to your vehicle, being proactive can save you a whole lot more than being reactive.

A small leak, unusual noise, worn belt or dirty filter might not seem like a big deal today. But ignore it for long enough and that small problem can quickly become a much bigger repair bill.

That’s where regular servicing comes in.

It gives us the opportunity to identify wear and developing issues early, before they have the chance to turn into those Pretty Pricey Problems.

And with heat, dust, corrugations and long distances thrown into the mix, preventative maintenance just makes sense.

Don’t wait for a warning light, breakdown or big repair bill to remind you your vehicle needs attention.

Contact us today to book your next service.

Engines don’t run on Broome Time. They run on Xpress Time.

We couldn’t be prouder to see Steven nominated for the 2026 Business Person of the Year! 🏆

To be recognised alongside 17 other hardworking members of Broome’s business community is an achievement in itself.

We’d also like to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you to everyone who continues to support Xpress Marine & Diesel. We wouldn’t be where we are today without the support of our customers, local businesses and community. 💙

MAKING MANAMBADDA STRONG AGAIN ⚓️

Manambadda is almost ready to get back to doing what she does best.

After the initial removal of her twin Suzuki 300HP engines, Manambadda headed over to the team at Broome Ali Worx for some much-needed love.

Once their work was complete, she returned to Xpress Marine & Diesel for some additional works and the reinstallation of her twin Suzuki 300HP engines.

We’re proud to have played our part in supporting Dambimangari Aboriginal Corporation and their Rangers and helping get this Warrior back in prime condition.

A massive shout-out to Lenny for helping coordinate the transport logistics and to Amon for skippering the sea trial.

It’s been a great team effort all round. ⚓️

Manambadda – meaning Warrior.
