Volvo TAMD41A

Can anyone tell me the fuel consumption (litres or Imp. galls/hour) of this engine at, say, 2000rpm? Theoretical or based on experience will do. I used to have the official consumption graph but it seems to have gone walk-about - like so many of my hand-tools!

Also, any guesses as to what allowance, if any, I should make for the fact it has now done 1200 hours.

Many thanks

Pheran,

At 2000 RPM fuel consumption will be approx 20 ltr/ per hour
At idle it is 1 ltr and at max RPM which is 3800 it is 45 litres/hour

At 1000 hours I would service coolers, check thermostats, set valves.
Possible injectors if needed.

rlw: Many thanks for that

miket: NO! It powers the extractor fan in the galley!
