The answer is yes and no. If the engine is turbo diesel then yes it is a good diesel engine. If there is no turbo do not rely on this engine. The non-turbo engines are almost like a human without lungs and they do not perform at peak levels. Although the German engineers can pull off most anything... I do not recommend the non-turbo engines. The turbo engines can go into the 300,000 mile markers if the engine is maintained well and you might end up having to change the turbo at the 250,000 thousand marker.
Using a Diesel fuel conditioner would be good for your engine and would not be bad at all.
A good sentence for the word diesel is: Do you want diesel or alkline in your car?
You will need to have some information ready. It is good to know the horsepower and the torque of your diesel engine.

Not very good, IMO.
not a good idea.
typical compression test reading fora diesel engine
If there is adulteration in diesel, you will gt late throttle response. There will be ignition delay. A good diesel gives wafer crisp power delivery & quick throttle response. Good quality diesel gives excellent low end torque & strong pulling power from lower RPM. As per obsevation of Multijet engine of FIAT :- In multijet engine, good quality diesel burns with clattery sound on idle. In multijet engine ,at cold start ,Adulterated diesel gives diesel clatter but diesel clattter disappears when engine goes to operating temp. In multijet engine at full operating temperature diesel clatter disappears & engine revs like petrol engine without sound of diesel clatter.
The JTD engine is good, and one of the most advanced diesel engines when it was released. It is also sold by General Motors as their main diesel engine.
Actually, it depends on the engine. I have a car here in the Philippines which is run by Diesel but there is no smoke. Meaning, my engine is in a good state! my blog - http://www.rickspot.com
Yes, if the the engine is a steam engine or a diesel engine. The diesel engine smoke should be almost invisible when the engine is in good condition. Electric locomotives are not typically called "engines", but these do not produce smoke.
