Title: LA170F clone(yanmar clone)
Post by: artfull dodger on June 08, 2017, 01:35:45 AM
This is the one small air cooled diesel that will fit under the hood of my Wheelhorse.  Having trouble locating one in the USA since imports of new are ^*^*&$ banned!!   The 6hp version that I can get new, is just a bit to all.  My max height is 17 inches.  From what I can tell, even with the fuel tank and bracket removed and silancer removed, its still to tall, only the smaller 4 hp will fit(I have fitted one previously years ago).   Any sources that might have one of these smaller air cooled clones on the shelf?    Mike

Been looking for something similar sized in 10hp for a Bolens. Post if you find something.

You can get that from Carroll Stream Motors brand new still.  The 6 and 10 horsepower diesels are still available.  The 6 is out of stock there but new shipment is due soon.   I might be able to squeeze the 6hp in my Wheelhorse, researching it now.    Mike
