Running our Volvo Penta MD 19 engine for the first time with water connected. We took the engine apart completely and renovated/changed the components. We did almost the entire work ourselves and wrote all about it on our blog.

123 Ampere werden beim Start eines Volo-Penta 2002er Bootsdiesel gezogen. (Amperemeter = rechtes Instrument) Die Spannung der Starter-Batterie (linkes Instrument) geht kurzzeitig auf 11V runter. Kurz danach liefert die Lichtmaschine kurzzeitig 37Ampere...bedingt durch die schlechte W-Kennlinie fällt der Ladestrom wieder rasch ab.
