LD2 Engine Question

[beauharlan]

Hi, I use LD2 for my boat engine but it is quite noisy, is there any way to fix that? And is there any way to insulate the floorboards above the engine. Thanks for all the help.

If the problem noise is exhaust, then you could try adding a silencer into the exhaust system, assuming you're not doing water injection.

If the problem noise is mechanical - then sound deadening around the engine is pretty much your only hope. There are various sound deadening products out there - I don't have personal experience of any - which you could line the engine compartment with. Just be aware that, being an air-cooled engine, you will need to make sure that you can get a good supply of cold fresh air into the engine compartment still, which may affect your chances of killing the noise.
