    See through Multifuel

    saw this happen once on a 12v71 in a mike boat while I was in Alaska in support of Operation Alaskan Road. Scary stuff. We had flappers on the intake above the blowers just incase this ever happened. They sure worked, but it was scary as **** being in an engine room when it happened.

    Definition of "multi-fuel"

    I wish I knew more about the multifuels, like cam specs and timing, and the injection pump timing. I bet we could get the BSFC up with some tweeking. regardless, this has gone WAYYYY of topic.

    Definition of "multi-fuel"

    So no numbers on the LDT? Those are low numbers on the multi. But then again its at a higher RPM than the other motors. I see room for improvement.

    tire size = mph?

    Tom, I tried this formula and the numbers were way off. Am I missing something? mph= (2200 * 24.5") / (168 * .79)= 406.11 Are we talking about the final ratio after the differential? Or is it the ratio of gear in the trans? thanks!

    muli fuel injection pump timing

    Well you should time it to the motors configuration. if its a C turbo, use the 'C1' mark if its a D turbo, use the 'D1' mark if it in non turbo, use the 'S1' mark If you look in the pubs, it has all the information you need to correctly install the injection pump.

    Definition of "multi-fuel"

    it is not the compression ratio, as the compression ratio in the 6.2l is almost the same as our deuces. it is not the fuel density compensator, that only helps the injection pump with metering fuels of different weight. IT IS THE DESIGN OF THE ENGINE THAT MAKES IT A MULTIFUEL!! The MAN...

    Flat Black Deuce?

    I have a flat black Deuce. Used John Deere Blitz Black paint on top of POR-15 flat underbody coating. In my opinion it gets even more looks. It looks frieghtening as well. Friends have described it as "something you dont want to come across at night" and " secret government project looking...
