Re: [MBZ] Kaleb's new ride
The 350s used to break cranks - some people with conspiracy fears suggested
GM did it deliberately so make people avoid diesels. It seems to have
worked!
But some people have gotten phenomonal life from them.
You'd think someone like the General could build a proper diesel - after
all, they own Detroit Diesel - which feeds the conspiracy.

The 5.7 was a gas 350 converted to diesel. They gave diesels a bad name
. From what I understand though even those are OK once they are sorted
out properly. The 6.2 was a diesel from scratch. Built by Detroit.
Seems people either love them or hate them. I have NEVER had trouble
with a 6.2. Others will say they are junk but thats probably because
whoever was working on them didnt know what they were doing. GM really
didnt support the dealers as far as educating them on diesels.

Re: [MBZ] Kaleb's new ride
The duramax is a pretty good engine but VERY complicated and expensive to work on. I like the 6.5's as well. Yes, some of them had weak IP's but usually once thats sorted out properly they are fine.

I remember at some point that GM converted gas engines to diesel with poor success That was the oldsmobile 5.7 liter diesel. The 6.2 was a detroit design, and as long as it was operated within spec, it was fine. It was a teense light duty for a one ton dually (it was originally designed for 1 GVW and below). In a suburban or a half ton, it was rock solid. Some people had problems with turbos, some didn't, that was probably more of an issue of hauling heavy loads uphill in the wrong gear with the throttle held to the wood than anything (just a guess). Given all four of GM's light duty truck diesels (5.7, 6.2, 6.5, duramax), I'd take the 6.2 long before the others.
