Back when I got my first tractor I was talking to an old fella that was always rebuilding and restoring old Iron. I said something about trying an old diesel. He said he stayed away from them. I was shocked ! 'Course I asked why. He said they were fine if you knew the tractor. But if you got one that needed an injector pump you could just bump the cost up another $800 minimum. That got my attention. Then you got guys using starting fluid in the cold and busting out the top rings on the piston. I believe they are great tractors if you know the one you are buying, but do due diligence. ( hey that didn't sound quite right)
