Are ya shure it wasen't a T4 deutz engine? Deutz are cool but sound like they are flying apart and the fuel pump makes a buncha clangin. Hey, they are aircooled diesels though.

I drove a parts truck for a truck dealership back in the eighties (I know I'm old) and I recalled it had a Deutz 5 cyl aircooled normally aspirated deisel engine. Oh...one more thing...In the same era, I thought I remember a friend's dad who drove a deisel rabbit...black smoke and all. Maybe this deisel 914 had an old deisel rabbit motor shoved in there...I wouldn't know why you'd do it other than for the gas mileage or if you were really fuckin bored.

There is nothing in the Pano archives about a type iv or 914 with diesel fuel. The diesel line ended production in 1963 with the last model year of the tractors being 1964... The factory that produced the engines went into producing lightweight (?) deisels for NATO tanks, so the last of the tractors were assembled outside.
I do have me some MAD google skizzles YO!

and Alphy, you are not the boss of Troy! He can make fun of you anyplace and anytime... it is easy for him.
