Very Expensive stuff and very nasty for the user involved.

Unfortunately, the little 4 Cyl 240HP Yanmar I was eyeing I was told is to be fazed out this year because of emission problems.

Gas engine 10 Grand, new custom fuel tanks maybe $2000, or $20000 for a diesel.......probably stick to gas.

Maybe I'll by my own tig torch for the garage and get some aluminum plate.
