I read in some issue of diesel power that IDI's seem to just reproduce. Once you have one more are sure to follow. I've got two. What exactly does one do to keep their IDI's from doing the rabbit thing?

Its hard not to love 'em when they're easy on fuel, good on power, and start every time. Not to mention cheap. I wouldve liked to buy a 12 valve but that wouldve been double the money.
