The giant manta rays of Revillagigedo are unique in their desire to interact with divers. A diver maneuvers under the curious manta as we believe the mantas enjoy the feeling of the bubbles on his belly. He enjoys them so much that he does a somersault around the diver. Wow! Video by Michael Krampf, choreography by God, on December 4, 2020 at El Canon at San Benedicto Islands in the Archipielago de Revillagigedo.

Checking the fuel injection timeing as stated in the manual. De-compress the engine and crank it manual. The timeing mark is behind the startengine. The sound in the video is not the right one, it should be shorter to be the injection sound. Mobile camera can be helpful, it register the sound and you can see the mark on the flywheel on the video. In later manuals an other method is adviced. Dis-connect the pressure pipe from the injector. Arrange the pipe so the end comes horisontal. Turn the engine slowly and look for when the diesel suface start to rise. Stop the turning and look for the timing mark on the flywheel. Something is wrong with my injection pump, so I got non of the methods to work out perfect. With the new injection pump the engine have great difficulty to start. With the old the engine starts instantly, but it leaks diesel to the engine oil. But I have clear indications that the injection timing is right.
