Re: diesel help
reliable? - yes - I have seen some with well over 500 000 original kms...
powerful? - no - not without substantial modifications...

Re: diesel help
Great motor just dont expect to pull the load you would pull with a cummins. They perform well with few problems generally.

Re: diesel help
biggest problems i've heard are the head gaskets and the injector pump. (auto tech teacher used to be the head of a military motorpool.)

Re: diesel help
dieselplace.com in the 6.2 section....if you can't find it by searching over there you may want to ask some of the 6.2 pros over there
