Yes, but only small piston ones, turboprop and jet have keys only for the doors. '08 RRS TDV8 I converted my diesel RRS to run on an environmentally friendly mixture of caribou fat and baby seals oil |

I'm sure Tim can explain better but this is probably the type of lump he's talking about! http://www.unp.co.in/f44/worlds-biggest-engine-49854/ it's just a blue oil burner |

Just seen this post, Alicat is right, the ship I command has the 12 Cylinder version of that engine......... just a little more torque than a TDv8 motor! Mind you we still only get 0-30mph (not knots!) in 7200secs....... which is no contest even for the slowest car in the world, it would beat us hands down! BUT you try stopping 115,000 tonnes doing 30mph.... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it 2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced 2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW |
