Yes, of course. That's why I love my 6 cilinder old diesel Perkins. It
simply works.
Not considering pollution. And yes, new motors work at the expense of these
little consideration. First the computer, the the rest.

Just be aware, that works for a dead starter, and it works with a weak

injectors, so you'll still need a boost on a completely dead battery.
