They are offering it in the overseas market but not the US. It would have given the consumer more choices than the still old tech v-6. Where is the 2.8liter 4 cylinder common rail diesel?

It feels really weird when it's running on only 3 cylinders, like it's about to stall/turn off, then it suddenly picks up again, then it almost dies again. I forgot what he did with it...my guess is he sold it. 1952 MG TD: yeah, he had money troubles for some time so he couldn’t afford to service it.

The engine was still idling happily upside down when i woke up from being knocked out. I turned it off and the junkyard that got the wreck afterwards sold the engine. As far as I know that engine is still on the road somewhere. My 1990 XJ had a 145,000 miles on it when I flipped into a forrest at 55 mph.

The tooling and dies were pretty much completely shot and needed 100% replacement. Tolerances were reaching their upper limits... The 3.8 should be a good engine, but I would like to see an engine designed for trucks and heavier duty applications. Renton, I absolutely LOVE the 4.0 I6, and will miss it greatly.
