Operating a twin on one engine and fuel economy

I will just throw a fact in here as well. I just skimmed this thread. But do not assume power curves for diesel engines are linear....they are far from it. Especially turbocharged engines. I don't know if y'all have been looking at actual curves provided by the manufacturer or just assuming that at half RPM, you have half the power......which is totally false.

....as you were.....
