Bob I know 2 guys that have C's with no electronic's on them so maybe they had an early C and a late one? their's are a 93 and a 94 Both of them say the C is the best of that style of CAT motor.

I would have thought a '94 for sure would be a peec engine... peec engines still have an inline fuel injection pump, same as the full mechanical. I'm not real familiar with them myself, but I know the "E" engines were born in '95, and that engine has no fuel injection pump, and peec preceded the "E" engines.
when engines overheat, they often damage the most rearward cylinder first, due to the fact that it is furthest from the radiator. the problem you speak of does sound familiar.
