Getting the engine running had to be relief for you.

Best wishes on getting rest of problems repaired.

That is the best part of a project like this for me. I love hearing an engine fire off after a rebuild.

It was indeed a relief seeing the engine running. Sounds great, no weird noises, about 60 psi of oil pressure (cold 15W40).

Can't wait to bolt it back to the front gearbox so I can run it a little longer without the thing trying to jump all over the place.

It sure brought the motivation levels higher.

You mean it doesn't have a harmonic balancer?

So I guess there is some vibration on a single cylinder diesel engine;)

Just a touch. Enough to shake most of the shop and have things fall out of the shelves. 😅

I know from experience an old Kohler 12 HP “K” series single shook the crap off my work bench but like PT was super happy it started and ran.

passers-by: wow is that an earthquake
Interestingly enough, the ground has been shaking quite a bit lately.
