I've been brewing an idea for a mini tractor project for a while.Been tinkering with a 5hp Briggs petrol engine that even Doris Stokes couldnt bring back so I started thinking about alternatives.Then while in the motorway services coming back off holiday,looking at a lorry driver trying to park his refrigerated lorry I got to thinking about the small diesels that power the fridge bit on the back.
Anybody know anything about them? i.e. what hp are they,Are they a horizontal crank set up like the briggs engine? I reckon getting one from a commercial scrapper would be a fairly cheap way of getting an engine I could run for nowt whenever Mrs Splatfest changes the fat in the chip pan
