The gas start Diesel run engines are reliable if treated to cool down and shutoff procedures that keep the heads from cracking. They are pretty efficient, and do well. Most are at the same power point as the Gas engine in the same tractor, or just a bit under) if not twisted up any. They use 1/3 less fuel compared to gasoline. Parts can be purchased, they are not cheap. Good running tractors will keep doing so if treated well. They have a bit less flexibility than a Farmall in the same engine class, unless power steering they can be a bear. The seating position is either great and fits well, or is hated. The WD9 is a serious tractor and is designed for heavy drawbar tillage apps. The 6 a bit less, but in that same purpose category. I hope this helps, They seem to have values at 75 to 80% of the same size Farmall. JimN
