probably 75% of the diesels on the road today,if not more,can easily be killed by using wmo as fuel,your driving an antique,and trying to tell people people it's good to run wmo in their vehicles and it isn't.attend 10 thousand accident scences and it will change your perspective a little,people get in accidents easy enough without adding unpredictable engine failures to the mix.what don't you get about that?coming from you thats a compliment

So it's safe to resume assuming/acknowledging that you don't agree with this right?

You got that right! I've not had any life threatening events from my "experiments". I HAVE however had one in my truck when I first got it with a death wobble that happened about 45mph in a turn. I used to race motorcycles. So not much frightens me. But a 7400lb truck wobbling and shaking out of control DID upset me.

OH and so Challenger has a real life failure issue...

I DID have an issue on the road in traffic with my second tank setup. My vent check valve became stuck in the second tank causing the system to vacuum lock. My truck did indeed instantly loose power. However I simply hit the blinker and coasted to the side of the road. No one harmed. After popping 1 and 3 injector lines off to bleed, away I went. I suppose a frantic driver could have worsened the situation. But wouldn't that be the fault of the driver and not the vehicle?

Oh wait, there's an e-brake on a car? Wait, the hyd portion of the brakes will still work without power assist? Oh my...
