Cummins Uprates B Series Marine Diesel Engines —Literature Available Cummins Engine Company of Co- lumbus, Ind., has announced uprated high-output marine propul- sion ratings for its B engine models. These new 1986 ratings are primari- ly for recreational and approved commercial applications. The model 4B3.9-M is now rated 80 bhp at 2,800 rpm, up from 76 bhp at 2,500 rpm. The new rating for the 4BT3.9-M is 150 bhp at 2,800 rpm, compared with the current intermit- tent rating of 100 bhp at 2,500 rpm. The biggest engine in the series, the 6BT5.9-M, has a high-output rating of 210 rpm at 2,600 rpm, up from 152 bhp at 2,500 rpm. "These new uprates are not just the current ratings turned up," said marine marketing manager Tom Stanley.
