    The 3116 got off to such a bad start.
    Cat did make some better and you will need records to ensure the heads, block, crank issues and heat exchangers were properly resolved and serviced.
    Cat finally came out with the 3126 that had it's own teething issues but were faster resolved.

    Some may say different here but I believe the 3116 could make fair boat moor anchors.
