Re: [Amc-list] AMC V8 Diesel--Did AMC ever create one?

[Peter Marano <PMarano@xxxxxxxxx>]

I suspect that GM's biggest mistake was to release the diesel engine in 
main stream cars.  People weren't ready.  My guess is the engines were 
beter than the care they were receiving.

Local cab companies would change cylinder heads and intake manifolds 
converting the engines to gasolene when the injection system would fail, 
since the short blocks were still viable. I wonder how many injection 
pumps were ruined by pumping gasolene.
