Go to the diesel products page.

I purchased a diesel head from MECOA for an OS-40FP years ago. However, I haven't seen any advertisements for their conversion for some time now.

To do it yourself you would need to remove the glow plug and make a contra piston and a way to adjust the compression through the glow plug hole. Not an easy task for most of us.
