Default The Andrea Gail had a gasoline engine

schlackoff, you are too stupid for words.

schlackoff, diesel engines with spark plugs are called "multi-fuel" engines

and
are rare.


Which proves you can't read. It didn't say "spark" plugs.

schlackie, you were caught with a fish hook in your mouth.


Joxitchbe, you were caught in yet another blunder. Add it to the list.

Steve

For sure it did, for the author specificly mentioned the crew of the
ill-fated
vessel was so anxious about the trip that they went to the boat the night
before leaving to clean the plugs on the engine.

One sentence, just one sentence, but it clearly shows the Andrea Gail had

a
gasoline engine. At least in the First Edition (for those out there who
know
what a First Edition is, the rest of you can go fry an egg).

THAT's it? That's what you're basing your assertion that the Andrea
Gail had a gas engine on? No mention of the type of engine? No mention
of fuel? Jax, FYI, diesel engines can have plugs also. So it could
have been a diesel engine and the author not even be wrong in his
statement. If he had actually said it was a gas engine, he surely would
have been wrong.

Since you know so much about gas engines, what model gas engine do you
think it had?

Did it specifically state *SPARK plugs*? There are many, many kinds of
"plugs", you know.


In a diesel? that can be cleaned?

wayne, you seem to know something about that particular engine. would you mind
explaining to "steve" just where all those crew-cleanable plugs are on that
engine?

Thanks. "steve" seems to draw a blank spot when asked.
