Jolly, Thanks for explaining that to me. But now I have a few more questions.
Are all, or almost all diesels engines two stroke, or are their four strokes also? What would a typical application be for a 4-71? Would that be for a medium duty truck, or possibly an off road application like a motor grader or something similar?
What about a Ford Power Stroke, two or four stroke? I guess I never really looked that close, but I always assumed that they were of the V8 configuration.
I have over heard many diesel people say that the Power Stroke was by far the best, followed by the Cummins that is available in the Dodges. Just about everyone that I talked to had very few good things to say about the Duramax. What is your take on this? Or are these engines much different than a 4-71?
