After looking at some of your responses, I'm wondering if you are you looking for information on old tractors that are diesels and actually used the Diesel principle for combustion that Rudolph Diesel invented ca. 1892, or are you also interested in old tractors that are multi-fuel, and will run on kerosene, diesel, gas, etc. but are not diesels and utilize a spark ignition?
There's a big difference, and it seems if your story is to involve bio-diesel, then you need the subject of be a true diesel engine that uses compression for combustion rather than spark.
Off course, there were lots of old tractors that were converted to "collector gas" and ran on firewood and trash fumes, but that's a different story.
