we had a older hustler with a 72" deck and it had a diesel on it and it was great! if memory serves me right it was a kabota, had a pto deck. we bought a new hustler z serise that has a 24or 25hp gasser on it and it works ok but the diesel had way more power and wouldnt pull down in tall grass. only draw back on the diesel is the inital cost:booo: but i thought it was worth it and 10gallons would last all day

http://cgi.ebay.com/Yanmar-Diesel-En...QQcmdZViewItem That is a pretty cool setup. John Deere uses alot of Yanmar engines, i'm surprised this hasn't been in a mower yet.:U: |

JD makes a diesel lawn mower that is what you are looking for
|
You need the engine out of a 355D john deere. 18HP vert. shaft and I believe the radiator is on top. It is a yanmar, and it was also used in the F735 front mount mower. Stout little engines, but they shake something fierce at idle!!!
