[DML] Re: Convert To Biodiesel

["conundrum1984" <jeepno1_397@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

James,
I think a diesel D' would be neat.  What engine are you looking at?  
One like is in a VW Jetta?  My mom just purchased a 2005 Jeep Liberty 
(Cherokee in Europe I believe) with a 2.8L in-line 4cylinder turbo 
diesel.  And it runs pretty good!  Rated at 500 miles per tank.  I'm 
thinking it should fit in a D' since it is a 2.8L and the PRV is a 
2.85L?
