This engine was a well built motor overall. The only problem was the lack of a water separator. The injection pump would often rust out because there was no method of water separation in these cars. Once water got into the injection pump, it then slowly made its way into the internal components of the engine. With the already high compression ratio, head gaskets blew, cylinder heads cracked, and crankshafts broke. With the right injection pump and a water separation device, these engines would have been fine.
