“The fine line separating the delusional from the visionaries amongst us is often
not foresight, but rather hindsight.”

1.It is not possible to convert a gasoline engine to a Diesel, using the same transfer line. I did it and it is the most successful Diesel in the world and it was copied by everybody.
2.The combustion for a high speed Diesel is not possible. I started production with a 5000 rpm Diesel with 2000 engines/day on the gasoline engine transfer line.
3. You cannot use a rubber toothed belt to drive the camshaft and the injection pump. I did it and it is the standard solution today.
4.It is not possible to use an aluminum radiator because the corrosion will destroy the engine. I did it and it is the standard solution today.
5.It is not possible to create an “emission free” natural gas burner. I did it. It is in mass production at VIESSMANN. BUDERUS sued VIESSMANN about “emission free” and lost.
Dr. Peter Hofbauer, Chairman and CTO
