Re: Mercedes Diesel in CJ
Are you completely oblivious to what made Ted's statement ignorant?
I sincerely hope you put a diesel engine in your TJ, they deserve
each other.

He's trying to be a solid peckerwood, but his knowledge falls short.
I'm by no means omniscent, but I have worked on more and different
kinds of engines than he has and so enjoy watching him dig himself in
deeper.
All engines do NOT drive oil pumps off the distributor drive.
Detroits, Cats, Cumminses don't,Allisons and Lycomings and
Continentals don't, and Northstars, Shortstars, and Quad 4s don't.
Because they DON"T HAVE distributors! And many old-style car engines,
foreign and domestic, don't either. Probably most Big 3 American car
engines do, but certainly not all.
Actually it's poor practice, because geared oil pumps always generate
torsional resonance and at high speed this can cause spark scatter.
But, the distributor is a thing of the past for the most part now, so
it's academic.
