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