Had to be on the farm with the IH diesels that started on gasoline and then you switched over to diesel fuel. Carb on one side of the engine, and injector pump on the other. 2 Pint gas tank and 12 gal diesel tank. It was a '44 MD. Went in the army and worked and drove diesels and multifuels; then as a maint mgr on big Cat diesels that started on Pony motors....
It was just a VW Golf, but it started the diesel wingnut in me.
So I've had and serviced 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 12 cyl diesels. Love em all....
