Knowing When to Get Your Marine Engine Serviced

When it comes to your boat engine, senses of sight, hearing, smell, and touch can become extremely useful in identifying a potential problem in your engine. Here are some of the things that your senses will tell you about your engine if you pay attention:

​

  • Pay attention to the color of the exhaust: Changing colors within the exhaust can be an indication of different problems. Black exhaust may mean that the gasoline is burning poorly. White or bluish exhaust means excessive oil burning, while steam normally indicates overheating. Do not ignore any of these signs.
     
  • Listen to the engine: Sounds of whining, knocking, and clanging could be indications of more serious problems with your marine gas engine. If you happen to hear unusual noises in the transmission or notice unfamiliar creaking or cracking sounds, this could mean a serious problem with the engine that needs to be addressed.
     
  • Pay attention to how the engine feels: Abnormal engine temperatures can mean that the engine can be working too hard.
     
  • Pay attention to engine smells: The smell of burning rubber can be an indication of a slipping belt or a water pump that may soon fail and destroy the pump and belt. A hot oil smell may mean that there is an oil leak, and an immediate shutdown is necessary.
