I've known a lot of people to have trouble with diesel engines, and very 
few people who could fix them underway.  A modern diesel engine is a 
pretty high-strung beast, with tight tolerances that must be maintained. 
  The Atomic 4, on the other hand, is dirt simple and will put up with a 
lot of abuse and neglect.

Do you know anyone running a 30-year-old diesel engine?
