Jean-Luc Pallas’ Marine Diesel Engines: Maintenance and Repair Manual is the go-to paperback reference for yacht owners, skippers, and marine engineering students who need clear, step-by-step guidance on diesel upkeep. First released in 2008 by Rowman & Littlefield, this 238-page English-language guide distills complex procedures into practical instructions you can trust at sea.
The book walks readers through routine servicing, troubleshooting, and overhaul techniques specific to marine diesels, pairing concise text with detailed diagrams. Pallas, a respected French marine engineer, covers everything from fuel systems to winterization, making the manual ideal for both classroom study and on-board emergencies.
This used copy shows only faint yellowing along the first two page edges; every other leaf remains crisp, unmarked, and dog-ear-free. It comes from a smoke-free home and offers nearly 900 g of reliable technical know-how without the retail price tag.
Add this comprehensive marine diesel maintenance manual to your nautical library and keep your engine—and your adventures—running smoothly.
