Older diesel ?

6.2 was a fairly reliable piece for most of the farmers around here, however they never hooked to a trailer and tried to travel any distance either. They suffer some common ailments , Inj. pumps glow plugs damper breakage Ect. not in my opinion worth the risk if you're looking to do some traveling with it. These were in my opinion about the worst attempt at a diesel engine by the big 3. Save yourself alot of trouble and get a 7.3 powered ford or a mid 2000 G.M. duramut. Can't say anything good about the Dodge except Cummins does make a very good diesel engine. Joe
