I can tell you lots. Green leakers are some of the most bulletproof diesel engines ever made. If it works good, it will for a long time. Check for water in the base. Oil will look like vanilla shake. Check for fuel in the base. Oil stinks like fuel.These are the 2 most common serious problems that result in catastrophic failure. It is a 2 stroke.This what makes the unmatched DD sound. Look after it.they are a dying breed.
