KB: I've often wondered if maybe European diesel fuel was a bit higher grade than we used in North America back then. I remember those first little British and German diesels coming into Canada. They always were shinking damn things, on Canadian diesel. The Farmall 560, 656 and 1066 smelled like diesels but nothing like those off shore ones. The B-250, B-275 and 414, I couldn't use they gave me a severe headache. They wouldn't start once temp dropped to freezing. I see guys using them today, they don't smell bad and start pretty good also. Probably upgrades as well as changes in fuel. I always considered your US gasolines to be better than our Canadian gas. I had a 403 Oldsmobile in late 70s. It would always do 2 miles to common gallon better on US than Canadian gasoline, both suposedly the same octain.
