Talk:Gray Marine 6-71 Diesel Engine

6-71?
Were all of the Gray Marine marinised versions the inline six, 6-71 engine? The 71 series was quite modular and so versions with different numbers and layouts of cylinders were common. Andy Dingley (talk) 08:54, 11 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Some of the text probably belongs in the main Detroit 6-71 article. Some of that on tanks possibly, as the tank use starts with Valentine about 1940. Might have been marinized version in the sherman issued to Marine Corps units. GraemeLeggett (talk) 11:19, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd tend to doubt that - it's easier to waterproof a land engine for wading than it is to run a fully marinised engine out of water. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:16, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Statement about two stroke aspiration
This statement as written is incorrect: "As a two-stroke engine is incapable of self-aspiration...". Gasoline two strokes widely used in motorcycles and power equipment do not have blowers and self aspirate. I'm not sure if this statement applies specifically to diesel two strokes for some reason, or if it refers to a limitation of this design/engine. I'm loathe to just remove it in case it could be corrected and if it would then add value, but it should be clarified or removed. wren337 (talk) 13:52, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
