Dave,
I don't have a lot of Deutz TRACTOR knowledge.. BUT.. as far as power units, I've ran a few of em.
On a tractor, they're right, you got to keep an eye on the jugs.. There's a panel that opens up on one side or the other.. Have to keep it cleaned out well or they overheat or possibly start fire.
Grandpa had a newer deutz-allis (9190) when I was younger.. I think it had around 3500 hours on it when they sold it.. Only thing I can remember them ever doing to it was a a/c compressor (and of course, the routine maintenance)
Their tiling machines (the last 2 anyhow) were both German built, I think they were both V10's..
The first was bought used, but "fully reconditioned" from a dealer here in the states.. They had a h3ll of a time with it.. cracked jugs, blown head gaskets, burnt pistons.. Dealer put a different engine in it about 6 months after the purchase (apparently, they didn't recon the engine too well).
The 2nd tiling machine they've had now for 12 years.. 10k hours on the clock, runs and starts as good as when it was new, and uses less than half a gallon of oil between changes. Grandpa has never said a word about hard cold starts, but we don't do much tiling in the winter though.
At work, we have a lot of small (2 3 and 4 cylinder) deutz power units. I can't attest for the maintenance, or how many "trouble free" hours, but, the ones I have run seem to start well, run strong, and seem good on fuel.. To me, they do seem a little noisy, and seem to vibrate more than some of the others.. But seem to be low maintenance.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
