The Kubota D1803-M-DI is a 1.8 L (1,826 cc, 111.4 cu·in) straight-three, water-cooled naturally aspirated vertical diesel engine manufactured by Kubota.
The Kubota D1803-M-DI engine has a Troiddal type сombustion сhamber (Direct Injection), the Bosch “K”-type mini mini fuel injection pump and Bosch “P”-type hole fuel injection nozzle. The cylinder bore and the piston stroke are 87.0 mm (3.43) in and 102.4 mm (4.04 in), respectively. The compression ratio rating is 20.0:1.
The D1803-M-DI diesel engine produced 37.0 PS (27.2 KW; 36.5 HP) at 2,600 rpm of net horsepower.
The breakdown of the engine code is as follows:
- D – 3-cylinders
- 18 – Approximate displacement 1800 cc
- DI – Direct Injection
