RE: A new and excellent post on underloading
Good post Eric.
I've seen this happen on a yacht with no genset and the main was used to charge the batteries every day. When it finally departed the anchorage, it was accompanied by clouds of blue smoke -*definitely an oil burner with glazed bores.
However, on its return a few days later the exhaust was absolutely clean. The owner reckoned it cleaned up after about six hours continuous running. Maybe you can deglaze by putting a load on - or maybe he was just lucky?
