Car has apparently been sold. There can't be too many Cutlass diesel's around anymore.

 

Surprised the diesel was still running. Was it the weak cranks that doomed the Olds diesel?

The blocks are really strong (hence why they used in race applications).

 

I've never heard that the Oldsmobile cranks were weak in either a gas or diesel engine.

The Oldsmobile diesels were lemons because they didn't have a water separator from the factory. Plus, Oldsmobile technicians at the time weren't properly trained to service diesel engines. That and how many folks do you know with Oldsmobile powered race cars that run 22.5:1 compression?
