lol.
just teasin' ya about not knowing about diesel exhaust fluid.
Perhaps some people don't read 'car news' ..like in regular major
newspapers ...like reviews of new models there, or car magazines.
In those venues urea fluid to reduce diesel emissions is pretty old news.
I do know people that almost never read, sadly, and I'm not saying you
are one of them.
I think reading itself increases intelligence. Even if someone reads
about knitting, it makes their brain work better, IMO.
especially on Fridaes !
vanagon content ...a hyper modern engine like that Chevy one probably
'can' be put in a Vanagon ..though not easily, I suspect, from the
electronics aspect. Possible I'm sure............As for easy....., I
wouldn't think so especially.
the displacement is pretty too small, right ? I could google it of course.
