oh K! Didn't know Detroit Diesels were 2 stoke. Thanks for joining in. :thumbup: So they've been used in automotive applications before, and they do have a useable range of power, even if it would be best for only a truck (or airplane apparently) until injection tech allows for higher RPMs. Right?
but I guess I don't understand the emissions problem. Why are they prone to higher emissions than a 4-stroke diesel? It seems like the power stroke is identical, so it should burn just as completely, and the FI would do a good job evacuating the cyl, so what's the problem? I want one! :wink:
your thoughts?
