BulletDeuce Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 http://www.mercuryracing.com/optimax-diesel-reporting-for-duty/ Pretty interesting, but probably not feasible for a fisherman. Turtleman would put a tuner on his & probably roll black smoke from Friday Hollar to Davis Boat Dock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountainman Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Pretty cool! I bet it sounds like a Singer sewing machine at idle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I seen this today too. Its amazing how little they changed the Opti to make it run on diesel. And yeah, I can see someone rolling coal down the lake now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trackertxw175 Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 And a 2-stroke diesel at that. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveHTN Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 It's pretty cool. Kind of a diesel/gas hybrid with the spark ignition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
softbaitmaker Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Pretty cool! I bet it sounds like a Singer sewing machine at idle I bet it sounds like a John Deer diesel Farm tractor sitting idling. I have been sitting beside the VW diesel Golf cars and they sound like small John Deers............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
