2-strokes are not so easy to run on Diesel without a blower.

It ran fine, but straight diesel doesn't have the methanol to keep the glow plug hot... If I had a diesel glow plug instead of a regular one, it would've worked a lot better.

Everclear, by the way, does not work as a mix with diesel for this application...

I was actually considering a conversion to compression-ignition

It's of a 1965 SS that his kids found for him he had bought it brand new way back then.

I don't think there's enough mass or material to support compression high enough for ignition.

Pretty slick!

Would be cool if he could put it in a little remote control semi tractor.

I was thinking a little generator set, running a light bulb
