well you laugh, but a buddy of mine actually has spark plugs in his 6BT and it runs on alcohol, it is one bad mother.

Good thing you reminded me.
It is time to change the spark plugs in my 94 cummins!

You beat me to it Dan ...

I was going to point out that the Cummins 6BT engines running on CNG have spark plugs, plug wires, a throttle, etc just like a gasser.

Just picked this CNG 6BT pics - Cummins 4BT & Diesel Conversions Forums

Look at the third pic of the first post. The spark plug wires say Cummins right on them!

yes there are a few hardcore pulling trucks or tractors that will convert their diesel setups to running alcohol and they are expensive/hard to do, but once their tuned right man do they go, theres a new holland competition tractor puller in the NTPA that converted his diesel to alcohol, and i think a few years ago he was number one on the national circuit. its pretty [email protected] if you ask me

what do they run the disturber off of??

 

[MrDiesel]

I think the gaps a little off on your #2 intake. You might want to do a quick valve adjustment.

i really have no idea, but according to the NTPA the weights and everything are different for the alcohol converts, but this is something i dont know a whole lot about this

for the sake of simplicity (on a not so simple setup) they likely use a magneto setup where the spark is triggered via a crank position sensor rather than having a mechanical drive distributor.

what are valves?:confused013:

 

[ratherbepulling]

yes, brett long builds some of these engines, they pull in the light super stock division of ntpa and tractors like the silver bullet(not a light super) have engines transferred to alcohol they use electronic igniton and the injector holes are where the plugs go then they move the injectors.

I have an International crawler tractor that has both spark plugs and injectors.
You use the gas to get it started. Once it starts flip a lever and it switches to diesel.
The gas "tank" holds about a quart, the diesel tank 80 gallons.

Mine's a 1954 TD-24, same size as a D-8 Cat.
Still runs great.

I read and article in TDR where a guy had spark plugs in his 24 valve(on diesel) for the fuel economy. Who knows.
