Is it better to choose a diesel engine or a gasoline engine for micro tillers?

At present, the power of micro tillers is mainly selected from diesel and gasoline engines, and these two types of power have differences in performance, cost, and experience.
1. In terms of performance, due to the different combustion and explosion methods of diesel and gasoline, the horsepower of diesel engines is slightly lower than that of gasoline engines with the same cylinder diameter, but the power is significantly stronger than gasoline engines. Therefore, in some hard soil areas, diesel micro tillers are often used for cultivation. The tracked micro tillers produced and sold by Chengfeng Machinery all use diesel engines, with strong horsepower and high work efficiency.
2. From a cost perspective, due to the high manufacturing process requirements and stricter material and technical parameters of diesel micro tillers, the price of diesel engines with the same cylinder diameter is higher than that of gasoline engines. However, under the same workload, the fuel consumption cost of diesel engines is significantly lower than that of gasoline engines.
3. From the user experience, due to the different ways of oil combustion and explosion, the manual starting of diesel engines is more difficult. Therefore, the diesel micro tillers produced by Yantai Chengfeng Machinery are reserved with electric starting configuration. Users with lower physical strength, such as women, children, and the elderly, can operate through electric starting, which is more labor-saving and safe.
4. From the perspective of applicable areas, lightweight gasoline micro tillers are more suitable for short-term work areas such as orchards, vegetable greenhouses, and vegetable gardens; Diesel micro tillers are more suitable for areas with higher requirements for work intensity, such as areas with hard soil that require long-term operation.
