All I can say, I had a Diesel car for three years;

Was it binary-driven for 16 hours per day?

No - but the engine compartment was only ever opened once every six
months. Big diesel generators are checked more often, and can be made
to work very reliably indeed.

(Swiss customs once asked me to open the bonnet - it was embarassing
since I didn't know how - but why would I ever want to?)
