Yeah, the sound from the straight pipe drounds out he diesel knock now. If you watch the video from last year befor I put the turbo on you can really hear it.
i would pay for one of those. i need to get ahold of one of those yanmars. i worked at a tractor shop before, right before i left to alaska there cubcadet joined with yanmar. ill call them up to see what i can get a 10hp yanmar for.
Dig around online. There is a few manufactures that make cylinder air cooled diesels. Hatz, Lombardini, Yanmar, and Kohler come to mind. They are quite spendy though, I was luck enough to get mine for free. Needed a cylinder head.
in high school shop class for final exam i took a kx 250 motor and put it on a ariens , 2nd gear it thru the snow a country mile ,the shop teacher tried it and couldnt stop laughing , then he bought from me.
BADASS!!!
about now I would pay to own that thing, we have been getting hammered with snow, but that sounds like a gas powered snow blower not a diesel

What do you add to the Diesel to keep it from turning to gel on the colder days?
@Hotlowpass
PowerService works great in blended & nonblended fuel
where can you buy these engines?

cant put nitrous on a diesel. gota use propane.
Best snow blower mod on Youtube by far.
Not the best but pretty good I saw a snow thrower that was throwing at least 65 feet.
It looks like you are pushing it. Is it now self-propelled?

ive seen it all now. what’s next a diesel skateboards????
how loud is this… and where did u get the engine from
its a yanmar 10hp diesel
I would focus on improving traction before I tinkered with the motor any more. A headlight might be useful too.
I heartily approve. Big thumbs up.
