In particular regard to this installation? I have no problem with
computer governed engines, once tey aren't reliant on th ecomputer to
run which isn't the case with any other engine I know of.


Can you actually name any common rail diesel (in any application) that
will run without the computer?



Nope. I know the older common rail ones didn't have an electronic
computer, but the thielert does.
In any case, I said computer governed engines, and I didn't specify
iesels because I was mndful of the airplane I fly at the moment, whihc
does have an ECu, with manual reversion.



Or, are you in MX mode?


What, stuck in front of a computer playing flight sim knowing that a
lack of electrons won't kill me?


What do you think?

No - ranting and raving about something about which you have no clue.

So, you're saying that the enge will keep running if the electricity stops?

People actually pay for Aviation Consumer?

The most valuable 39 bucks (or whatever the subscription is) I spend per
year in aviation.

I agree. I subscribed several years ago when my company was thinking of
buying a Cherokee 6 and I wanted access to the back issue database online.
I've read just about every word in each issue since.

Me, too. It's the ONLY magazine out there that actually tells it like it
is, without being influenced by advertisers.

In the first common rail engines, wasn't it a hydraulic (rather than
mechanical cam) system that controlled the injector valve?
