	Alternative Diesel Fuel
		Diesel engines are different, he said, because the fuel is sprayed into the cylinder at very high temperatures, where it evaporates, burns and ignites before it can solidify.
		In fact, research shows that a diesel fuel composed of nearly 15 percent water, 20 percent to 30 percent methanol or ethanol, and 50 percent to 75 percent syrup - water and sugar - is an attractive recipe for the fuel.
		A recent diesel engine test at KU was successful using a fuel mixture of 54 percent syrup - 7.5 grams water and 46.5 grams of sugar; 8 percent cetane improver; and 38 percent methanol.

	cars - General Motors Electro-Motive Division (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		General Motors' Electro-Motive Division (normally shortened to GM EMD or just EMD) is the world's largest builder of railroad locomotives.
		General Electric is (narrowly) No. 2, and between them they have built the overwhelming majority of the locomotives in service in North America and a large proportion of those in the rest of the world as well.
		The story of diesel's conquest of steam is better placed elsewhere, but a combination of many factors weakened steam's position and strengthened that of the diesel locomotive, and by the late 1940s to early 1950s, the majority of American railroads had decided to dieselize.

	Old Time Trains
		GMD These well-known initials represent the most interesting industry on the C.P.R.'s London Division; the General Motors Diesel plant on the outskirts of London, at Crumlin, mile 110 of the Galt Subdivision.
		Originally diesel locomotives were built for both domestic and export but, in later years for the U.S. market as well, eventually closing of the EMD plant near Chicago in 1991.
		General Motors Train of Tomorrow was present at the sod turning ceremony for the plant in September 1949.

	Marine Diesel Engine, Marine Diesel, Diesel Marine Motor, Yanmar Marine Diesel Engine, Volvo Penta Marine Diesel Engine
		General Engine Products (GEP) a subsidiary of Am General Corporation was born out of the need to improve the durability of, and sustain the production of a 6.5L diesel engine for military and commercial use.
		General Motors, opting for an Isuzu engine for certain vehicle lines, chose to support the transfer of their 6.5L production knowledge and technology to General Engine Products, Inc. The current home for the 6.5L engine (the Moraine Engine Plant) was scheduled to close in the latter part of the 2000 calendar year.
		The General Motors 6.2L and 6.5L diesels were never intended to be high performance diesel engines and therefore would never have been capable of supporting the rigorous marine duty cycles achieved with today’s Optimizer 6500 engines.

	General Motors Diesel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		General Motors Diesel, Limited, was created in 1949 as the Canadian subsidiary of the Electro Motive Division of General Motors located in the United States.
		GMD also built some experimental diesel-hydraulic locomotives and straight electric units as well, although neither were more than a tiny percentage of production.
		General Motors Diesel Ltd. became the Diesel Division of General Motors of Canada Ltd. on February 1, 1969 in a consolidation of all Canadian properties.

		The Model 16-278A General Motors engine (as shown here would be the forward outboard side, blower end, of Engine 1 or 2 in B1 or inboard side of #4 in B3), four of which were installed aboard the USS Slater, is a 16-cylinder V-type engine with 2 banks of 8 cylinders each.

	Oliver Diesel - Engines & Outdoors
		Timing mechanically injected diesels like the General Motors (Detroit Diesel) 6.2L, 1993 6.5L, and the Ford (Navistar) 6.9L and 7.3L diesels (all of which use the Stanadyne DB2 rotary injection pump) is simple in practice, but understanding the why and where to time is what this article is all about.
		Most light-truck diesels come off the line tuned for moderate power and little or no smoke, and as miles are added and power drops off, the general wisdom has been to advance the pump to reclaim some of those lost horses.
		For 6.2/6.5 diesels, advance is towards the driver side; for 6.9/7.3 diesels, advance is toward the passenger side.

	Diesel Engines
		In general, however, the use of diesels on intermediate sized combatants and larger requires that several smaller units be combined to drive a common shaft.
		There are two extremes of diesel engine maintenance and overhaul philosophy: run the engine until it breaks and then repair it (usually at the most inopportune time) or continuously tear it down to inspect and replace worn parts.
		Diesel engine trend analysis is the collection and analysis of diesel engine operating parameters for the purpose of predicting the need for corrective maintenance/overhaul.

	GMDD Bus Deliveries
		The following pages list the 6,541 buses deliveries from General Motors Diesel Division when the bus assembly line was located in London, Ontario (1962 to 1978).
		Commencing September 1980, regulations required a 17-digit VIN (vehicle identification number) which tells (when decoded) the country and date of manufacture; make, model and serial number; assembly plant and even some equipment spcifications.
		From then until GMDD sold its bus manufacuturing business to MCI (Motor Coach Industries) in August 1987, all buses were in a unified serial number sequence.

		General Electric is the largest, overtaking EMD in the mid-1980s, and between them they have built the overwhelming majority of the locomotives in service in North America and a large proportion of those in the rest of the world as well.
		In 1930, General Motors, seeing the opportunity to develop the diesel engine purchased the Winton Engine Company, and after checking the Winton Engine Companys books, decided to purchase its chief customer "Electro Motive Company" which was a rail based company.
		The tour was a success; Western roads in particular saw their prayers of freeing themselves on their dependence on scarce, expensive desert water supplies for steam locomotives answered in the FT. By 1940 EMC was producing a locomotive a day and had reached 600 in service.
