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?
