    What makes a multifuel a multifuel?

    I want to point out that contrary to the above scan, the Continental multifuel is NOT particularly efficient as diesels go and was bettered by even the mediocre two stroke detroit: 8V92: 0.345 BSFC minimum at 1700 RPM, for an efficiency of roughly 39.8%. 0.355 BSFC at rated horsepower, for an...

    What makes a multifuel a multifuel?

    The number one thing that makes it a multifuel is the compression ratio. The MAN combustion chamber is supposedly able to reduce the rate of combustion pressure rise inherent in high compression ratio diesel engines. The FDC uses the fact the the viscosity is proportional to the fuel's energy...

    Stuck injection pump shutoff arm

    I have a few spare engines that I had neglected for a couple of years and wanted to get running again. One had a stuck shutoff arm. I ended up swapping one from a spare pump but even some of the spares were stuck. I had zero luck with applying penetrating oil over a period of several days...

    Pattern for compressor wrench

    Continental shows one in their literature for the TD6427 which predates the multi. Been around a long time.

    Injectors! Testing, home made pop tester, results.

    The MAN chamber is designed for the fuel to be tangentially injected into the cup. I have to believe both used the same injector; but I don't know.
