Presentation
The D12D-A MP is an in-line, direct injection 6-cylinder marine diesel engine.
The engine has electronically controlled fuel injection, a turbocharger, aftercooler, heat exchanger and thermostati-
cally controlled freshwater cooling, electronically controlled engine speed control and shifting.
The exhaust manifold and turbocharger are freshwater cooled to reduce heat radiation to the engine room
