Green, Wellllllll I used to buy n sell those pony start diesels years back and most alllllllll were bad to throw a ton of blue smoke n a bunch of blow by butttttttttt they usually got the job done. The advanatge was regardless how cold so long as they didnt run out of gas they could start the diesels cuz their exhaust gasses circulated in the diesel head area to warm up it and the intake air. The disadvanatge is they are pretty well all worn out (smokin n belchin badly)unless they have been overhauled and that can be veryyyyyyyyy expensive.
The electric starters do pretty good IFFFFFFFFFFFFFF you have big heavy honkin batteries and those 24 volt systems are still workin WHICH MANY ARE NOT LOL cuz they are complicated for those electrically challenged individuals. Even if all is well it can be tough to impossible to start an elec start model at extreme cold temps where the pony still can.
If I had a limited budget Id rather buy an elec start model then one with a worn out pony motor cuz that can get expensive to repair buttttttt If it had to start at extreme cold temps with no heating provisions then one has to go the pony route
