A couple years back there was a long string about an import special
diesel generator plus someone had a web site describing his trials with
it. Google just isn't getting it for me, any help?

I've been asked to acquire a one of these for a project. It needs to be
the classic simple design, lousy castings, poor fitup, works when you
finally get all the bugs out, runs on any fuel that is handy kind of
machine. Looking for the 10 to 20 hp range, 6 to 12 kw. Sources?
