Subject: [MBZ] 2 stroke diesel auto engine?
Was there ever a two stroke diesel engine in a car? If not, why not?
Seems like doubling power strokes would be a very desirable thing.

I don't know for sure if there were any or not, but my guess would be
none due to emissions.

2 stroke diesels suffered from very narrow power bands, noise and very
dirty exhaust.
