Re: [jeep2diesel] Deisel Jeep Conversions
Hi Dave,
Because the diesel won't get out of it's own way, if it's normally
aspirated. Put the same two grand into your TJ, for three hundred
horsepower, of course you don't have to, you already blow every diesel
into the weeds.

Who cares. CJ, YJ, TJ, are boxes on wheels. They are not performance
vehicles and this arguement is really silly.

You're a bit confused. A Diesel has fantastic low-end torque, which is
where you'd normally want it in off-road use. Oh, I forgot... they're so
gutless that almost every 18 wheeler uses one.

Never had one in 135K miles. I replaced my injector tips at 125K, and
they were all good enough to go another 125K, but I'd already bought the
new ones 3 months prior so I changed them and kept the old ones for spares.

That just shows that you don't much about day to day diesel driving. I
drove mine every day, even in -30F weather. Mine had a built-in 400W
heatplug that I used at home once the weather got below 0F, but I had no
AC at work (outside parking lot) and mine never failed to start.

There you go again, comparing tin-can economy cars to everything else.
Most people who rode in my car were amazed how smooth it drove, and how
fast it went.
