Diesel tractor with gas pony motor start, runs nice. Pony smokes a little, needs some adjustments.

(quoted from post at 04:48:38 06/15/14) Diesel tractor with gas pony motor start, runs nice. Pony smokes a little, needs some adjustments.

Is there a question here? Or is this a "for sale" or a "I'm interested in purchasing" post?

Good point John, I bet there was a lot of sludge.

Make sure the crankcase oil isn't diluted with gasoline or coolant. Run straight 30,40 or 50 wt oil depending on the temperature.
The smoke isn't all bad, it keeps the skeeters away.
