Does your exhaust have fittings that look like this? if it dies call us at West Coast Marine Diesel and we can come down and do an inspection. We make high quality marine exhaust systems that you can trust. Not only will we build a quality product but we always try our best to improve the design. A well designed exhaust system protects your engine from water backing up in the engine and making for veery expensive repairs ....... and even worse ..... lost time out on the water.

Lets talk about PSS Shaft seals - they are an excellent and well proven shaft seal design. Every Marine repair Professional has something to say about their favourite shaft seal design. Mine are PSS.... They are a straightforward design that works reliably. if the shaft is grooved or pitted they will still work with minimal shaft dressing, of course if your shaft looks like it went through a meat-grinder you may have bigger problems that need to be addressed first but overall they are the winner for us here at West Coast Marine Diesel. Call us for andy running gear issues that you have and we can send down a professional to help you with your issues.

Service on cummins 5.9 6BTA cooling system - this is what a regular service on the cooling system should look like - waiting until salt and water are coming out is NOT in the realm of regular maintenance - our goal is always to have an endless summer with no major breakdowns - don't wait for your boat to break service regularly and cruise all summer!! Call us at West Coast Marine Diesel and we can keep your engine running like a top.

This is the raw water pump from a ford lehman diesel. there are a couple things going on here - one is the corrosion issue but the other is the pump needs an update - this is the old style ford lehman pump with a two piece shaft. they had a tendency to break the coupler and cause the pump to stop working and then a massive overheat. It is important to have a professional in the engine room sourcing out potential problems. This is all part of owning a boat and maintaining it in good safe running condition. Call us at West Coast Marine Diesel and we can do your engine service and keep things in top condition so you have a successful cruising season.

Here we have a classic case of terrible things to come if nothing is done soon. This is a Volvo MD40 series engine and the after-cooler is "blooming" - this unit needs to come apart and be serviced (cleaned and pressure tested). if it fails the pressure test it will need a new core. After-coolers are one of those parts we don't repair - It is a critical part and failure is usually catastrophic. Call us at West Coast Marine Diesel and we can come down and assess your cooling system.

Is this what your battery bank looks like or do you have a similar situation? If so then you should give us a call - we take pride in helping to transform you engine room into something that you can be proud of and want to show off. More importantly a tidy electrical system is safer and makes diagnosis of issues easier and will save you in downtime and therefore less time spent at the dock when you should be out cruising and enjoying you boating time. Call us at West Coast Marine Diesel and we can come down to your vessel and have a look at your electrical system and assess what we can do for you.

Heres a really bad day - we were able to locate a donor block and build a new engine to get our customer back on the water. this was a more cost effective solution than a total repower of the vessel. If you have engine issue give us a call at west coast marine diesel we always have a solution for your woes.
