    Thought some might be interested in these videos of a newly restored Japanese tank on it's first test here in Oregon.

    That thing needs a tune-up on its engine ASAP, it smokes like crazy.

    Japanese tanks had diesel-engines, right? I wonder if its the original one, or a modern replacement.

    The Japanese used both Diesel and Gasoline engines in their tanks. The Chi-Ha used a Diesel.
