Read the comments around page 6 or 7. "Only a toy diesel would have a chain driven cam. An engine like that wouldn't last more than 100k miles."

ya, I'm thinking that Japanese chick singing got her cues from yoko...
what was you guy's first clue it wasn't a diesel...
I was curious when I saw the pistons... they looked a bit short up top to be diesel... then I saw the head... um, no WAY CI is possible with those domes... then the fuel injector bosses popping up in the intake tunnel... um, what? then of course the spark plugs and wires... uh. I don't think so.
