Article points out methods currently used to diagnose marine engines in operation. The development of tools and programs for implementing these methods was pointed out. The problem of unsatisfactory measurement susceptibility of marine engines was highlighted. Three methods of parametric diagnosis are presented: measurement of in-cylinder parameters and in exhaust gas duct, numerical simulation due to computer software and calculations based on Wibe function. Unfitness states that were analyzed during tests are presented: reduced injection pressure, obstructed intake air duct and reduced compression ratio. The specific enthalpy of the exhaust gas within one engine cycle was determined as a new diagnostic parameter. As a supplement, thermograms of the engine in various states of inoperability were presented. The obtained results were compared and a series of conclusions derived from them were presented. It was evaluated that numerical simulation is an excellent tool for planning experimental studies. Tests on the engine in operation were found to be the most diagnostically reliable.
