The above post is only half of what i spent an hr. typing up, this new computer i currently have has the touch pad in the way of everything, a slight brush of my finger can and will wreak everything, everyone keep telling me that progress and new tec. is good but it has become a nuisance, can't solve one problem with 5 new problems,..
Anyways, i hope im not insulting anyone by the links i posted above, it's were i left off.
Are theses high speed diesel engines (model PH1?) avalible and if not what is it's equivalent (lister or petter), what are the prices of these engine new and used, does anyone have one of the ''good'' ones for sale, how and were can one be bought from, are parts avalible and not over-priced or hard to order in, how is the quality and durability of these clones, can it be converted to burn veggie/wast oil/biodiesel, and most of all...is it worth the money, give it to me straight it takes a lot to make me
I would prefer a used engine due to my finatual limitation and can overhaul one so long as parts are avalible and not stupidly over-priced or hard to order in, but if a good NOS is avalible ??....
Dieselman, Amen to what you said, i enjoy overhauling/rebuilding old engines also, it is a labor of love, my first complete overhaul when i was a kid that got me started was a small simple 1949 air cooled 4 stroke Clinton gas engine model B-1102, it provided many years of survice and is now a retired heirloom, i also collect David Bradley walk behind garden tractors and it's attachments and find myself at engine shows to display and educate.
