What engine computers were used in the 1940's and 1950's?


Ford PROCO. Texico was working on one in the 50's also, but I don't recall
the name. Can't recall the others.

What COMMON RAIL diesels were made in the 1940's and 1950's?

Can you name a single COMMON RAIL diesel that didn't have a computer?


No need to shout, I know we are talking about common rail engines.
Now, I'm not sure that thermoinic valve computers were ever used on a
diesel engine but I don't recall hearing of any computer on a 1950's
Cummins PT or even a 1940's Cooper Bessemer.

Cheers
