Gauging interest in diesel engines
I want to gauge or feel for any interest among the forum members for 25hp 2 cyl (v conf) horizontal shaft diesel engines.
The price per unit is near $1000, but may be lower if there is enough interest.
The initial buy will be made out of my own funds, members who wish to purchase one will be purchasing from me, and shipping or pickup will be arranged at the time of purchase.
I believe the units have a 1 year factory warranty.
Now would be the time to ask questions, not when your ready to buy.
IF YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO GET A DECENT DEAL, DON'T ATTEMPT A PURCHASE!
The way this is arranged, I hold the highest potential to take a financial hit, which makes this less dangerous for other members.

That's about the right HP to be useful; I kinda wish it was an inline twin for packaging reasons...
Is it direct injection i.e. no prechamber? Got a spec for grams/kw fuel use (or whatever units)? What's it weigh? Liquid cooled? Etc.

They're Winsun, actually. I believe they have oil filters.
Frank, I'm waiting for an answer back from the mfr about all those questions.
As you know, time is tight for me right now.

Depending on interest, shipping is part of that price. It's AROUND $1k per unit.

Too big for my 2004 Bajaj Chetak, but very cool.
