I have a new to me 6btaM1. I bought it last October with 3000hr and it has 3900 now.
I have been changing the oil filters and oil every 300hr, and changed the exhaust pump impeller once (m71) but that’s it as far as maintenance.
It is a keel cooled, wet exhaust design, I believe originally done by sbmar many years ago.
I also see a slight oil sheen from the exhaust, not sure if this is normal or not. I probably have to add maybe a quart or two between oil changes to keep it topped up.
I don’t run the engine hard, typical cruise is 1400-1450rpm, wondering if I should give it some rev’s every so often as I’ve been told the turbo needs to be ‘blown out’.
Anyhow, thanks for any responses in advance.
