They're not too common; Haven't heard much about 'em at all.

i've only seen one in my FSM. I'd add a turbo to it and it would be a nice car, diesel might be cheaper than gas for a while, but they took the sulphur out and i've heard it was killing engines faster, otherwise it should be reliable.

ive never seen one but i would buy one in a heart beat. what type of mileage do you get?

recycled_toddler · Jul 22nd, 2004, 02:18 PM

Being diesel, I'd say that it'd get anywhere from the hi-40s to the lo-50s in MPG. They don't have horsepower (40-50, perhaps), but they got hella torque.

It's not that diesel is cheaper than gas, and in some places it isn't; It's that you can go farther on one gallon of diesel than you can gas, diesel vs. gas car.

it gets 55 mpg right now at 129,989 at the odometer

the hp is a bit higher, close to the e16s with a bit more torque.

22.2:1

How much better or worse is the compression ratio caompares to your usual E16?

Red_Coupe · Jul 22nd, 2004, 07:18 PM

well the killing me part ,I was trying to be funny

but the comp. is going to be much higher due to the fact that the diesal works on compression instead of combustion. apples and oranges to compare . Both good at one and bad at another.

The ave. e16 will sport? 9.4:1 and the same for the GA16I the e15 is 9.0:1 and the 15et will have7.8:1
now mind you this is all stock numbers.
