Perkins 4107 Engine 'issues'

21/05/2008 10:00

Recently re-commissioned boat after a 2 year lay-up. Engine run for about 6 hours on a shake-down 'cruise'. Next day, grey smoke when engine started, but ticked-over ok. Now won't turn over, watery emulsion in oil and oily watery sludge over valve springs and inside rocker box cover.

Head gasket problem - or worse? Your thoughts would be welcome.

(Head gasket set on order just in case!)
