Main problem with a diesel is finding one big enough.
They are easy to find up to about 25hp (air cooled) but as you get over 10 to 15hp they do not go up to 3,600rpm a lot of them are limited to 2,500rpm.
Then as you exceed 25hp it gets very difficult to find unless you are willing to put down big money on a liquid cooled engine.
