Look at the 13 hp Diesel engines I picked up today

[cldh35611]

These are 13 hp diesel engines, I think they were used in gen sets but I am not sure what model gen set. They were made in Germany, does anyone know anything about these motors? I have nine of these and I am not sure what I can do with them so lets get some suggestions.

Thanks,

Darrell

Install one on a pogo stick.

I would put one in a golf cart and use it to pick up aluminum cans on the side of the road......if I ran it on veggie I could double my profits.

It might be the Tutonic version of the British Listor engine.

Pretty sure those run at 1800 rpm, where the lister runs at 600 rpm. FWIW

Make a real nice generater set?

I'd love to get one of those to run a generator for our irrigation. They'd probably just sip fuel. Have you had one running yet? They had a bunch in the sale that ended today insets of 4.

I think those went on plate compactors.

200+ of them working their way thru DRMS at Mechanicsburg.

If you send one to me I will mount on my lawntractor and let you know if its a workable idea.

The reason i thought it was rated at 3000 rpm is because the data plate said something about 3000 min-1. I hope I can work on some of them this week and get them running. They all turn by hand except one and two of them look new "never installed".

I have a four wheeler with a bad motor. I would like to use one on it, but I am not sure if I can make everything work.

Thanks for the input, keep it coming.

they are 3000 rpm engines, but that does not mean you have to run them at that. see the spec sheet http://www.farymann.com/pdf/Farymann_43_F.pdf

[flyxpl]

how much do they weigh ?

 

[steelypip]

I wonder if one would fit on my snow blower. Right now it has a rather sickly 5 hp Tecumseh.

This motor would work great on a portable band sawmill. Was watching YouTubes last night of home built mills. Most of them have little gas motors and seem under powered. Nice lightweight diesel much better.

 

[Beerslayer]

OK, I am pretty sure I nee one of these fine Farymann diesel engines. Here is what I want to use it on.

Any of you gentlemen have one or three of these you would like to sell?

 

[Beerslayer]

So I ended up buying a Woodmizer LT-15 sawmill. It is powered by a 15 HP Kohler engine. It is a good engine but I would prefer diesel.

Does anyone have one of the Farymann diesels they would like to sell?
