I am in the market for an Oliver 1850 or 1750 , and I read a lot about people saying to stay away from the Waukesha gas engines because they are prone to problems. Is this really true, and did Oliver have some inherent design problems with the gas engines, or was it more due to operator problems because of poor maintenance or abuse?
What about the Waukesha diesel engines, were they a good engine , or were they prone to problems too?
I know that everyone says that the 1850 with the Perkins engine was the best Oliver ever made.
