I,m wondering why a diesel in smaller tractors? I no they might run alittle longer than gas but the cost of repairs is more the fuel cost about the same maybe more. The cost of all the filters, injector cleaning, fuel pump, all this seems like it would be more than a gas tractor. I can understand a larger tractor but say something like a small compac tractor or even up to say 45 hp tractor what is the advanage? Twenty years ago the fuel pump on a 4020 was 1500$ to repair maybe more. What makes them so popular? In winter time you have to have no. 1 fuel or they jell on you seems like a pain. Thanks for your imput good or bad. By the way i,m neither buying or selling just run out of something to do nothing on tv and to hot to go outside!
