Launtop 186 single cylinder diesel engine

[Raja11262010]

Does anyone know where I can purchase a reasonably priced single cylinder air cooled diesel engine e.g. Launtop 186 or SHARK SH186F ?
I have e-mailed the sales department of Launtop several times but they never responded. There are many ads offering to ship these engines from China but the minimum quantity is usually 10 engines and the shipping costs  are very high

One website devoted to diesel powered generators stated that none of the air cooled diesel engines could meet current EPA emission standards and consequently they have been removed from the market. Can anyone confirm that statement.

I should point out I have extensive experience repairing Japanese automobiles, especially Hondas, but I have never worked on a single cylinder engine.

Good Morning
To get a reasonable response to your request you'd really have to specify a country/regional location to get these engines delivered into.
"EPA" would indicate the US of A, maybe. But EPA slang-said about many countries emissions regulatory agencies. Japan, Canada, EU, UK.

Look at the most recent posts at the bottom of the HOME page and member trigzy just put up he still had some aircooled Chinese clone compression-ignition and gasoline? engines he was still selling. But only into Canada.
