Hi . Just got a replacement BMC diesel 1.8 engine for my boat. It's come on a pallet and has good low mileage history. I want to just check it's ok before I fit it. I have a starter motor. Just need to know how to start and stop it. Thanks jed

+12 jump lead to the big terminal on starter, - from battery to somewhere on engine, +12v to terminal on fuel pump (if electronic stop solenoid), might be manual lever, fuel pipe to pump feed into a Jerry can (try and nick some pipe with a priming bulb in from somewhere will make it easier), bridge the terminals on the starter and it should go. If it's got glow plugs just hook them up to +12v too and give them a quick burst before trying.

Wow is that it? Hmm it's not that hard then . It has a manual fuel primer. I Will look at the cav pump for the terminal. To stop it do I just take the wire off the pump? On the boat I pull a cable a bit like a child lever.

It'll probably be a manual cut off switch then, should be a mechanism on the pump somewhere
