    It's a chinese "knock-off/clone" of a Yanmar engine, rated at 6.2 HP and h-e-a-v-y. It is equipped with a compression release valve that assists in starting (and keeps from throwing your back totally out of place when your pulling that rope).

    Q: What does the diesel sound like?

    Make an offer- it could be yours!

    Here is a short/poor quality video of the diesel running for the first time during a test run. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuPwhX4cwvY
