Default The Andrea Gail had a gasoline engine

There's the old Continental Model LDS-465-1A. 600hp Multi Fuel. Miltary
surplus for the most part, you can still buy them pretty cheap. They run on
diesel and use spark plugs. There's a good nuber of them out there
propelling mid size commercial fishing boats still.

so, base kisser, just *which* diesel engines (as used on longliner fishing
boats) have spark plugs did you say?

base kisser, you stated the engine on the Andrea Gail might well have

had
**ELECTRICAL** ---- PLUGS ---- on its drive engine and the only

diesel
engine
you could name that you felt had **ELECTRICAL PLUGS** was

a --------------
Perkinns -------------- 4-108.

base kisser? do you always have this much trouble trying to read

English?

base kisser, the discussion has always been about the engine in the

Andrea
Gail
(check the headline). so why hell are *you* talking about fishing

from
a
bridge over some fricken' creek?????

Again, stupid, please show where I've ever said anything about the
Andrea Gail and a Perkins diesel.



Again, you stupid ****ing idiot, I NEVER mentioned any particular
diesel engine. Damn it, will you LOOK at the damned posts before
making such dumb statements?
