Doug,
Dont know. I am not that conversant with most of these diesel
motors apart from having to use one or two or seeing them when I was a
child, or just after I finished school, or in my travels overseas. Am more
aware that they are/ were available in the Phillipines until recently from a
catalog on harvesting equipment that a friend who is an agronomist lent me.
This catalog was about 10 years old off memory. From memory a lot of the
pictures showing equipment that was available showed machine designs that
were 40,50,60, or even 70 years older.
Most of the ones I saw and used when I was a child were pretty ancient even
then. Another brand name that has just sprung to mind is Blackstone.
Also remember that they had a decompression lever that made them easier to
turn over and start.
B.r., David
