[QUOTE="Peacock, post: 842130, member: 12973"] I'd be willing to bet it was pretty inefficient at that rpm. The biggest reason why diesels don't turn more rpm is because there simply enough time to heat the fuel to the point of combustion. I've talked to a few of Honda's engineers and they are completely against diesels. It goes against Honda's long line of lightweight, high revving, quiet gassers. They spent quite awhile trying to get the things to rev beyond 5k with any efficiency, but they couldn't. I guess the gains in fuel economy are worth it though.... [/QUOTE]
