I just bought a Deutz
I just bought a Deutz four cylinder engine. It was on a Morbark type
machine and some illegal immigrant c********r ran it out of oil. I
figure the crank will need turning and the cam and lifters will be gone
but the cylinders probably in good shape. For $150 how wrong could I
go?
Now all I need is the jeep to put it in. I'm thinking a buggy sprung
YJ with a bad four cylinder engine and trans would be the best host. I
can sell the Jeep 4 at least as core. sledgehammer the POS Peugeot
transmission, but would I be able to use a 700R4 without repositioning
the T-case?

Re: I just bought a Deutz
Cylinders need oil too. For $150, heck the starter is probably worth that.
I will be interested to see how it turns out, after the propane conversion,
the ducted cabin heat, and the electric baseboard you plan to install.

No propane, no ducted cabin heat, and no electric baseboard (??). My
goal is just to get the damned thing going. We'll worry about all
non-essentials after that.
I just ordered a manual and a cylinder base wrench. I have now more
than doubled my investment... Should be interesting.
