Call up Bob or Brian Smith at American Diesel. If they don't have one around, I bet they know where one is. 804-435-3107, in VA.

Easy to forget that this is a worldwide group . . . I saw two small Yanmar's recently on eBay but also, those chinese aircooled diesels sell new in Miami for around $ 500.00! No gear or anything but I suppose they are rough for that price and could use some rebuilding (deburring?) to start with. Another good source are the local diesel engine dealers: they usually have trade-ins sitting in the warehouse. -- Jacques <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.bateau.com" target="_blank">http://www.bateau.com</a> "BruceM" <bruce9950@@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:3fa43f44$1@duster.adelaide.on.net... > Not near my nation's capital. ><!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: Diesel Engine

I have a Volvo MD1 from my project boat. What would it cost me for your class to rebuild it? Even have a copy of the shop and owners manual that you could use. I live in southern Maryland about 45 miles southeast of DC.

My experience is that small, marine diesels are VERY expensive - have you considered VW Rabbit, Datsun/Nissan/Toyota/Mazda small truck engines? Around here you can get an old diesel Rabbit for about $500. Lloyd Sumpter<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: Diesel Engine
