Google "cerlist diesel" and you'll find a 3cyl 85hp 2 cycle diesel was used in the Jeep forward control series at one point in the late '50s and early '60s. Cerlist apparently claimed that each cylinder of their engine could make 25hp (I dunno why the 3 in the FC Jeep was 85hp). Supposedly they made or were going to make a 100hp v4 engine. If true and it was acceptable for automotive use just think of the possibilities.
