THIS AD IS FOR PEOPLE WHO THINK

ALL MARINE DIESEL ENGINES ARE ALIKE

DID YOD KNOW?... 1- Electro-Motive division of

General Motors (EMD) has built 1698 of its new 710 G series engines and has orders for over 500 more. 2. Over 900 towboats are pow- ered by EMD engines. 3. The 710 G is an evolution of the reliable, dependable 567 A,

B, C and D, and the 645 E and F designs. The 710 G Is more fuel efficient across its power range than its four-cycle competition.

It is smoother running, acceler- ates faster, is easier to rebuild, and parts are less expensive and more available than its competi- tion. EMD unit exchange (UTEX) parts are available for all engines. 4. The 710 G and 645 engines are designed for, and are produc- ing 30,000 hours between over- hauls with EMD premium power assemblies, in tough towboat service. 5. The new EMD turbochargers with 18 roller clutches are tougher and last longer.

AND, ARE YOU AWARE?... 1. Unlike some four-cycle engines,

EMDs don't have to be mounted on springs to keep from shaking your boat apart. 2. Unlike some four-cycle engines,

EMDs don't have to have their oil pans changed frequently because of vibration cracks. 3. Unlike some four-cycle engines,

EMDs don't wear out in 15,000 hours, requiring weeks to overhaul at your expense.

Your EMDs will run like they always have, except more efficient- ly then ever before, and more effi- ciently than the competition.

If you're in a hurry, at your 30,000 hour overhaul, we will turn you around in 24 hours, and still bill you less than our competitors.

We'll see you 30,000 hours later.
