NissanDiesel Forums

I bought a CD17 engine a while back and a gas Sentra with a blown engine. The trans wouldn't mate up. And, Odie, there wasn't a CD17 forum anywhere. I eventually traded the Sentra body for a wrecked Isuzu Pup diesel and some boot. A fellow close to St. Louis said he really needed the CD17 to fix up a car that had belonged to his dad. He said it was in the shop, waiting on parts. I sent the engine with a friend moving to Muscogee, OK. The guy in St. Louis calls back and says the repair shop parked his car out on the curb and the city eventually towed it away. So, if anyone needs this engine, it's now mid-continent....

Damn, that's a sad story. Wish I could think of a good home for the orphan engine.

Don't think I'll ever send an engine w/o $$ first again..

However, it did start me down the Isuzu saga road which has been fun! Met some nice folks along the way.

o wow, i would totally get it if it wasnt so far away... i bet shipping on the thing would be crazy.

Shipping would not be very high. I shipped a 3 cylinder John Deere diesel engine from from NC to NY. The trick is to ship it with a Dock-to-dock pick-up and deliver. IF the freight company does the pick-up and deliver, then its going to cost big time. My cost was around $165.

ANY chance you still have this engine? I am in need of it!

I really need this engine. If you still have it or know where one is I have a neighbor who is 90 years old and wants so badly to fix his tractor that is custom with the cd 17 engine for his Grandson before he dies ! Help!!!!
