Most European diesels will not function on US diesel fuel. Our fuel has too
high of a sulphur content. That's why we don't get the nice high performance
turbo diesels here in the Colonies, not too mention the prevailing (read
idiotic) negative attitude in general against diesels. Probably a good 90%
of Americans view diesels as dirty and noisy, and as long as we have cheap
gas, the attitude won't change.
