I found this on eBay. There lots of small engines we don't know about. This one is for sale in the U.S..

What a beast!

The thing looks way overbuilt the owner says it weighs about a ton.

Here is his YouTube clip.

Decided to copy and paste the description from the seller below since the eBay ad will expire.

Kaelble F125E 15/18 HP Single cylinder diesel engine. Running. This unit is mounted on a cart with on board air tanks. The air tanks are not functional right now. We start it off tractor PTO. Go to you tube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGaOpUJRHE2eCFr8rvk5QzQ  This is a video of starting and running. There is also a crank mechanism to start engine.This unit was made in 1951 and installed in a road roller. I have copy of original receipt from factory in Backnang Germany. I can load at my shop. Weights about a ton. Very rare engine in USA!

This is the third week in a row he has had a starting bid of $3500 and no bidders. Very heavy duty for sure.

The price that listeroids are going for, and if someone had a need for a slow speed diesel, It might be ok to take a chance on that beast. That is if parts are available.
