The site is not too technical. There is nothing making anyone participate in technical threads. Most of the threads here are not technical and is refreshing to those of us who are not newbs or actually have interest in how these things work, to see anything other than "where to I get diesel fuel" questions. If technical discussion was relegated to another forum chances are I would stop visiting here. After all we are discussing diesels. I know that Davis doesn't like technical discussion. Yeah maybe he has the only line of modern diesel products, but is not the only one that can figure it out and discuss it. The Russian model engine forums talk about engine manufacture and theory all the time. I've never seen any complaints that technical discussion was brought up. If we disregard the technical reasons of why we like diesel the leaves the awful smell and hard to come by fuel to discuss.
