I bought several old 'reefer" trailers for storage,and two came with running refrigeration units,one thermo king the other I dont remember.
The mechanic at the place where I bought them said the engines were Asian built, one With TK cast into the block like Bob says. The mechanic said they are about 35 hp and run at low rpm in the reefer. The mechanic said they have little more than scrap value as everyone wants the combination diesel/electric units so they can plug them in when parked for a while. They sure are a nice running little diesel,must be some use for them. About the only odd part to work around is the overly large oil pan. The mechanic said with constant load,low rpm and clean conditions with a big oil supply,those engines normally run 20,000 hrs between rebuilds.
