    I want to point out that contrary to the above scan, the Continental multifuel is NOT particularly efficient as diesels go and was bettered by even the mediocre two stroke detroit: 8V92: 0.345 BSFC minimum at 1700 RPM, for an efficiency of roughly 39.8%. 0.355 BSFC at rated horsepower, for an...
