We must of had a good one then if there was one. Always started good. Used it on a feed wagon during winter time. Had a Norwegian cab and always threw good heat. Ours had a turbo and would pull just as well as our diesel with turbo. Usually ran it on silage blower and a loader in the summer. Also used it on a portable dryer hooked into 1000 gallon tank. Do I want it back? No. Was it ok a that time? Yes.
