I have heard of many haveing been changed and I don't think they had too much trouble. I think if you want a diesel then look for one now. Engines may be getting hard to find in the good and cheap catagory. So buying one allready set up may be cheaper right now,plus you can dyno the engine if it is in a running tractor before you buy it. The New Generation of tractors is gaining in collections and that may be another factor as not to bucther one up. If you require a loader and the gas tractor has a good one I'd buy the whole package now and run it and maybe do some work on it and then if you find you want a diesel then keep that loader and sell the gas tractor and buy a diesel. You might just make some money on that gas tractor as a few years back (15 ?) we paid around $5,500 for ours and really haven't seen any for sale in our area since. I wanted a gasser as I mostly did alot of starting and stopping and running around in all kinda weather so a diesel 24V was not very appealing to me.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
