Diesel horses

Recommended Posts

Forest Road

There's another thread going which has sparked major interest in diesel repowers. I'd really like to hear from anyone who has gone ahead with one. I'm contemplating replacing my M14 with a K/M 16 or quite possibly a diesel. My horses don't see a lot of use so fuel going stale can be a problem. But not for a diesel!

I'd like to know especially if anyone runs a two stage blower on a 10hp diesel? V twin diesel isn't in any budget.

How are they starting in cold weather?

How are they at cutting your grass?

How do they compare to your old gas motor? Power and noise?

Average fuel use? Approx hours on that 1.5 gal tank

Thanks

Kevin

That's on my list for this summer. I have a lumbardini 2 stroke waiting to go in my c-125.

There has been quite a few diesel conversions documented on here.

 

Probably the most informative one that springs to mind is Steves thread here:
