Those diesel are really easy to work on. Easier than a gasoline engine, in my opinion. They're also about bulletproof. I bought a 735 diesel that had not run in several years. I cleaned up the injection system and it fired right up. Oldmech has it now.

Hi! For the small ACME diesel engine. For start. Look Pict 1 . You must pull speed lever at half or more 2. You must pull up the small button for (fuel primer) 3. Pull starter rope very hard and fast( with two hands)
If engine dont start. Pict2 With diesel engine we must change fuel filter at least every two years. We must bleed air in injection system. For this .L
oose the nut at fuel line first at pump you crank 4-6 turns and after you tight the nut. and you repeat at fuel injector.
For valve adjustment the clearance is .006 in. or .15mm not .015 in. Good Luck! Oldmech
