Nissan doesn't even build their diesel engines. Nissan Diesel was bought by Volvo in 2007. Side note: in 2015 Nissan will offer a Cummins in the Titan truck. Mazda is owned by Ford and has produced its own diesel engine for years. They are currently built in the Ford factory in Dagenham, London, England.

Does Briggs and stratton make diesel engines?
Yes, they do.
Does cummins make v8 diesel engines?
Yes. The new 5.0 liter diesel engine to be used in the new Nissan Titan is a V8. They had also developed a 5.6 liter V8 in the mid-2000s, but it never got introduced with the economy taking a turn for the worse.
Do all Subaru's have rotary engines?
No! subaru does not make a rotory engine! Mazda does.
What cars have diesel engines?
Usually Volkswagen's or some Mercedes have diesel motors, generally European car makers usually make a diesel car.
Can you put amsoil in 7.3 liter diesel engine?
You need to make sure that it's oil specifically for diesel engines.
Who makes a Light diesel pickup?
I know of no small diesel that is imported into the U.S. Isuzu, Nissan, & Toyota all make a diesel sold in other countries.
Why are diesel engines so loud?
The high pressure fuel injectors make all of the noise.
What problems did the diesel engine have?
1. Diesel engines, because they have much higher compression ratios (20:1 for a typical diesel vs. 8:1 for a typical gasoline engine), must have thicker metal castings so tend to be heavier than an equivalent gasoline engine.2. Diesel engines also tend to be more expensive to buy. However, because diesels can do more miles per gallon, they are well worth the extra money because, but, if you do a big annual mileage, they will save you money buying diesel fuel instead of gasoline.3. Diesel engines, because of their weight and compression ratio, tend to have lower maximum RPM ranges than gasoline engines. This makes diesel engines high torque rather than high horsepower, and that tends to make diesel cars slower in terms of acceleration. The latest designs of diesel engine have performances which are almost as good as as gasoline engines.4. Diesel engines must be fuel injected, and in the past fuel injection was expensive and less reliable. Nowadays many gasoline engines also use fuel injection systems and the designs of both the injector fuel pumps - and the injectors themselves - have been improved to make them very reliable.5. Diesel engines tend to produce more smoke and "smell funny." Nowadays, provided they are serviced correctly, diesel engines don't emit more smoke.6. Diesel engines are harder to start in cold weather, and if they contain glow plugs, diesel engines can require you to wait before starting the engine so the glow plugs can heat up. Modern diesel engines don't have that problem.7. Diesel engines used to be much noisier and tended to vibrate. Modern diesel engines can be almost as quiet as gasoline engines and they don't vibrate so much.8. In some places diesel fuel is less readily available than gasoline.
Why have my last 3 Diesel Puntos never gotten warm enough to heat the cabin?
Diesel engines do not make much heat without a load.
Is a internal combustion engine a type of engine?
Well, you have rocket engines and jet engines which aren't internal combustion engines, and various types of internal combustion (Otto cycle -- what you probably have in most cars, Diesel cycle like small diesel cars and trucks, Wankel cycle like in Mazda rotary engines like the RX series, and 2-stroke like in dirt bikes and lawnmowers). There are also Stirling engines which work on heat differential but don't make a lot of power and are usually quite tiny and for demonstration or cooling purposes. So yes, internal combustion engines are a type of engine.
What oil should you use for diesel truck?
15w30 or 15w40 are common for "all around" usage. Make sure it's oil specifically for diesel engines.... API CJ4 is mandatory if you have a more recent model with Selective Caralytic Reduction, and is compatible with earlier Diesel engines.
