Volvo TAMD 42

[scalez]

Anybody got any experience and feedback for me on the Volvo TAMD 42, 235HP diesels for a inboard setup on a 29' express ?
Probably slow but good burn. Any specific things to look out for on used (200 hr) engines ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

I ran a 40' work boat with a Tamd 42 in it years ago. It was the best. Those engines will outlast just about all others in a work boat. They are the smoothest quietest diesels I ever put in a boat.
I don't have any real advice on what to look for on a used one.
If you get it only use volvo air filters in it. I put a different brand filter in to save a few bucks and it sucked into the tubo. Saved a few bucks on filter and next day I bought a new turbo charger.

Thanks for the input Fishduck. Just looking at a good price on a pair and need somebody's experience.

Can anyone suggest what to look out for on these used 200 hour engines ?
