Generator and Engine Service with RPM

Generator and Engine Services are going to be needed fairly regularly when one owns or operates a marine diesel-powered vessel. always trust trained licensed repair professionals to perform generator and engine service. RPM diesel has been in the diesel repair business for over half a century. We know diesel, better than anyone.

Novice mechanics should not attempt to repair or maintain these types of engine systems. For Marine Equipment, the amount of knowledge and experience needed is far greater than rudimentary auto maintenance like oil changes or tire rotations. Cars are fairly complex machines in their own right and for major issues, it’s likely you’d bring your vehicle to a proper mechanic, but a lot of the maintenance on cars can be performed at home.  With boats or other oceanic diesel equipment, this simply isn’t the case. The investment cost alone in these vessels makes it so there is too much risk involved in going through unlicenced repair options. This applies to the internals of the engine itself, and any generators you may have on board.

Marine Diesel Engines will often need varying levels of attention, maintenance, and repair on them throughout their life. Unlike a highway breakdown in your car, which although inconvenient is a manageable situation in most cases, breakdowns at sea can be extremely costly and difficult to deal with. As the owner or operator of the vessel, the safety and wellbeing of the crew onboard are also your responsibility. Depending on the location, a breakdown at sea will require a costly tow back to the nearest port, and then figuring out the logistics of getting the crew home. It can and usually takes hours for the nearest tow vessel to reach you, and in that time your boat and crew are subject to the harshness of the waters they are afloat in. Imagine a breakdown in bad weather.

Additionally, many of the electrical components on your boat are operated by a marine diesel generator. These generators are specially designed to handle the harsh conditions brought about by spending hours at sea and being exposed to those levels of moisture and salt. Unlike typical home backup generators, they require regular maintenance and repair by the same knowledgeable diesel technicians who would perform this work on the Vessel’s engine and components. Don’t leave the operation of your boat, and thusly the safety of its crew in the hands of fate.
