Robert's post pointed out the myth about the GM Diesels being modified
Oldsmobile Gasoline engines. Oddly, wikipedia articles both perpetuate

VW, Audi, BMW and Mercedes all have a V6 diesel. If you are driving a fairly new Dodge sprinter (here in Europe known as the Mercedes Sprinter) it is possible to order a V6 diesel.Just my 2 cents worth.ArdenOn Aug 15, 2007 02:38 AM, Zeke Yewdall [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ummm. I don't know
Hmmm. I forgot about the old detroit diesels. Here in the US, the
diesel sprinter vans that I've seen use an inline 6 instead of a V6.

Ummm. I don't know anyone who makes a V-6 diesel engine. What's it
in, how old is it, and who manufactured it.

Some of the Detroit 2 cycle diesels where, are? available in a V6
configuration. I remember that my dad's first oil well servicing rig was
power by a V6 71
