Disadvantages of the Saab D207E engine
The swirl dampers that cause issues for engines in this series are absent from this dependable diesel engine;
The only clogged part of the Bosch fuel system is the metering valve.
Nozzles frequently start to pour during extended runs, but they are easily fixed;
The exhaust manifold occasionally cracks or deforms around the fourth cylinder, but the turbine lasts a long time because only the geometry of the blades changes coke and wedge.
