JD165 - First Run

(1/2) > >>

Hi All,

I just finished my latest project.
A small JD165 air cooled diesel driving a little 2.3 KW head.
The engine makes 3.7HP @ 3000 rpm but I slowed it down to 2000 rpm.
The noise is a little more tolerable when the engine is not screaming.
Fully loaded I expect it to make approx. 1.5 KW which is ideal for powering a refrigerator, freezer, and some light in a outage.
These little engines use very little fuel.

Here is a link to the latest Fall release from Veggie Film Productions  ;D

PS: The exhaust pipe is temporary. I have not yet figured out a muffler arrangement.

Nicely done. Is there still a source for these in North America? I have a little 1.25/1.5 KW gen head I am looking to do something with.

Same idea as you, will run the fridge, lights, and TV/Radio.

Thanks Bronco,
As far as I know they are not available due to revised EPA regulations.
Same goes for Canada. Craigs List or EBay may uncover the odd one.

Thanks Glort.
Ultimately I want to run it on Veg Oil. And according to your experiences, this should not be a problem with these engines.
(Provided I dose with water from time to time).

Does OZ allow you to import stationary diesels still.?
If so, these engines are available from several suppliers.


cheers,
Veggie

As usual for you that is very nicely done set. I have one of those engines that was sold new in Canada as a Jeri Diesel.
