Hello Niklas.
A D4 has a two cylinder petrol starting engine and a 4 cylinder diesel main engine.The R4 has a 4 cylinder petrol/ TVO engine.TVO fuel is basicaly heating oil,Kerosene.I mix my own TVO fuel.4 gall Kerosene 1 gall petrol and a dash of diesel.This works great on my Fordson. The same with the D2 and R2.
Did you know that George Lucas,the creator of STAR WARS is interested in Caterpillar tractors? He named one of his robots in the film R2D2.Not a lot of people know that.
Regards
Martyn
