That makes sense, and thanks for the info. The guy that has it bought it as a genset - but then discovered it was 400 cycle. He does not know much about diesels, but insists the engine is a "low pressure" diesel with NO injection pump. I couldn't figure, if so, how it could work? The word "diesel" is analygous to "compression igniton", and - any diesel I've worked on - fires when the fuel is injected. So, something with at least a compression ratio of 16-1, and likely higher, needs some sort of high-pressure injection as I figure it. If the fuel was simply dribbled into the air-intake, what would time the firing? That's a rhetorical question, I guess. But, while I was at this guy's place, I tried to keep an open mind. No injectors were visible, and the governor is electric - the electric servo operates a rod that goes inside the block or head. I suspect it goes to the injectors hid inside, as you mentioned - probably similar to a Detroit Diesel setup. First one I've seen like this, though.
