Anyone looking for a Witte Diesel set?
« on: September 23, 2015, 02:43:53 AM »
Link is to one for sale on Smokstak. I live close enough to pick up and store for anyone who could use that help. I have done business with Tom previously. No connection to this engine, just getting it out.

It sure looks like their big one.  My smaller unit reports to run on anything except "crude".  This unit probably weights in close to 2000 pounds.

I can't see if it's electric start which a few are.  Nor can I see if this one is fitted with the cast iron base that holds around two gallons of engine oil and would be a big part of the 2000 pound estimate.
