    To our friends in the old country that may have never seen one of these, it was developed to replace an Oldsmobile diesel in 1982. The problems with them are that they are underpowered and underbuilt. When they tried enlarging them to a 6.5 and adding a (small) turbo, everything started breaking. Blocks, crankshafts, head bolts, even the starter would tear part of the block away. They were so prone to overheating they had to redesign the cooling system to use dual thermostats. The 6.2 is fine. You should have a good engine.

    I ha had this engine in an American RV I had. Yes, not quick at all, but plenty of torque, and very smooth. I believe they used in in the Humvee for the American military. And yes, it was 12v but needed 2 batteries in parallel to provide enough ampage

    Another great video as always. I saved this video for a day off and you certainly didn't disappoint. Without doubt your will it starts are the best will it starts on RUclips as I feel I'm sharing your annoyance at trying to start an engine. Despite I wear headphones when I watch RUclips, I shouted "go on start yer bugger"!! 8 o'clock on a Sunday morning I thought I'd woken the whole household up!!! By the way, old man cushions rule, as I'm 55, spent the whole time since I was 16 at the same firm playing around with trucks, originally garage teaboy/gofer but the last 25 years spent driving, everything we deliver we unload so my knees are well and truly buggered. My 6 year old self wanted to be a lorry driver so I was screwed from the start!!! Please keep on doing everything that you do. Thanks lads.

Cue the proliferation of the internet, and *actually* these things are utter pig crap, and they're only half decent in a Land Rover because they're about two tonne lighter than the Suburban they came out of...

There is a Soviet V6 which was fitted to their version of the Reliant's I could have one sent over, they are rear drives too which would make it interesting but think the 950cc is likely the move to make (950's were fitted to Liege's)
