small disel a/c engine?

Agree, the FADEC's work flawlessly.
Great fuel economy too - though the 172's have so-so performance (new C-S
3-blade prop too try to get some of that performance back) and they really
stink of kerosene!
Need more power, huh? Bigger engine, or more boost.
Sounds like the exhaust needs to be run to a location to get the gasses
clear of the plane while in flight, or that the fuel system is leaking, or
the vents are inadequate.
Diesel cars do not stink of kerosene. What is causing that problem in the
airplane?
