Re: 478 Diesel vs Gas?
let me put my .02 in here. If I had both gas and diesel 478's side by side, I would go with the gas engine, hands down. If for nothing but the fact that the TORO-FLOW crankshaft MUST be rehardened if you resize the shaft to an undersize set of bearings. The Am. Bsh. fuel inj. pump can be problematic to repair due to availability of repair parts, and the general need to run only SAE 40 series III oil in the engine(DDA 2-cycle eng. oil specs). Keep the gas engine and sell the TORO-FLOW to someone for parts.
