Trying to find a picture of a tractor injector. Found a pic of a tractor connecting rod here: http://www.wengers.com/parts/Farm-Tractor-Parts/White/2-155/2-155/Engine-Diesel/Sub-Component/CONNECTING-ROD/01-403807851.htm

This is complete misconception. The multifuel was a nearly complete redesign of a Continental series of engines; NOT a redesign of a tractor engine; and NOT a modified gas engine. The tractor came decades later. The engines from which the multi was derived had similar horsepower and operating...
My son and I took my bobbed deuce to a local tractor show. I have full rear exhaust and we were able to drive at 55 mph without ear protection and converse without yelling at each other; just speaking in a loud voice. When we drove into town, I began to hear this obnoxious racket. I thought...
Many gas engines had positive crankcase evacuation systems at least as far back as the 1940s. This was the first environmental control implemented and started in California.
The turbo part number for the late LDS427-2 is 109126384 / 4D454C. If you search, you can find one on a popular auction site using 10912638. Looks to have an archaic turbine design.
