bsinn: The gas start diesel was a very good engine back in its day. When new and on a standard engineering day of 59 degrees it was intended to be warm enough to switch after about one minute. Slight diesel mis should be cleared up within another minute or less. They also started very good at cold temps when new. After about 50 years it probably needs some work. They were prone to head cracks because people did not let them cool befor shutdown which should be going back to gas and then electrical switch off and compression release back to diesel. They are expensive to rebuild compared to gas engines. I prefer the diesel but I am biased. Hope this helps a bit. R.
