Lite Reading on oil burners

Featured Replies

I'm waiting for the reading to include the words "now available in the US" :)

 

A diesel outback or forester would be perfect for our family and I'm nursing along two very old Subarus, hoping the diesel is available before they croak.

They are having teething pains with the clutches and are working on a CVT that can handle the power.

My DD is a diesel.

 

I'm still amazed how major car companies can have "issues" with transmissions for Diesels due to the torque.

 

The emissions part is no mystery, unreasonable reg's will do that. But I'm talking basic engineering stuff for the tranny's.

 

My current diesel is just getting broken in at 200k.

 

I'd love to have the option of replacing it with a proven diesel that is horizontally opposed and AWD.

It is from trying to keep thngs as light as possible for better throttle response. Also subaru has a very small space to put a clutch (and beefier)transmission into. Subaru is unique in its layout, where as other companies have some room to play with.

L O L !

:lol:

My dyslexia kicked in when I read the title of this thread I thought why would you want a reading light on an oil burner?
