3 cyl Diesel SJ

[lazy rambler]

Has anyone else seen this on ebay, it's a 410 with a 900cc 3cyl Kubota diesel. That's gotta be mega slow.

I love the quote 'quite slow on the road

really I never would have thought a 24bhp engine designed for use as a hydrolic pump would be slow

[turbo-tom]

im watching that too , i wonder how much torque it actually will have

[twiss]

About 42 ft/lbs

[turbo-tom]

oh haha aparently my old vw lumb the torque was about 200 something

[Edweird]

Oh dear, that's got to be gutless! The standard 410 engine's something like 45bhp and 65ft/lbs

It's going to be so underpowered the mpg will go down surely.

Please take it for a test drive and report your findings there is one major benifit, its gotta be a lot lighter than most other diesels not sure if I could handle that though, I got really bored driving my dads work hack while my golf was off the road it's a 1.9 n/a diesel mk3 golf van, Damn it was slow.
