BMW Diesels

[cjm_22sq]

Anyone know anything about the old BMW D7 diesel? It's a single cylinder, max 7 hp alloy motor usually with a hurst box. (I'm talking 20 - 30 years old here) Only a single and noisy, but very small and very light. Looking for info on spares etc; someone told me that they were based on a Hatz diesel - any truth in that??
Cheers,

If you look in Trade a Boat there are adds for places sell second hand parts. Usually the exhaust manifold is corroded out and they want about $500 for one !
