Updated Gas vs Diesel Engine and Resale Value?

The other thing to consider is that the LM2 uses the exact same thrust bearings, yet they haven't had the same issues as the LZ0. Can you imagine it was a drunk or disgruntled employee messing up the installation?

It would be pretty sad if this would really be the case of somebody just missing inserting both of them. First of all their parts counts would have had to have been way off because they should be issued in sets. Unless somebody slipped them in their pocket and took them home there's gotta be a lot of leftover thrust bearing somewhere..

I'd be surprised if the failed engines wouldn't be tracked by work shift and, possibly, assembler. When I worked at CAT they tracked every piece we assembled and made, and that could be tied historically to the shift and assembler.
