No no no, the 606 is still indirect injection with prechambers, same as the older diesels. The difference is that it's a hemispherical combustion chamber, with the injector in middle of 4 valves. The prechamber and injector are buried deep in the middle of the cylinder head, not outside like the older cars. And the glow plugs are super long to be able to reach in that far.
We didn't get a real direct-injection engine from MB in the USA until 2005. +dm > ------------------------------ > Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2006 18:16:19 -0600 > From: "Kaleb C. Striplin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [MBZ] Coked up intake > > the 606 is direct injection? I didnt know that.
