Hi, this is just a quick hello from a new member. Hi 

I have a lister engine in my narrowboat. unfortunately I am not 100% sure which type it is. 

I have looked at the pictures on the realdiesel website and the one it looks like the most is Lister Petter TS2M Twin Cylinder Air Cooled Marine Propulsion Engine. Although there are some differences. I have looked at other pics online and it also looks a lot like the Lister TR air cooled (2 cylinder)  So it might not be that one. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to identify which engine I have?

Also I have been having starter motor problems since I have had the boat (about 18 months) Twice I have had to have the starter taken off and worked on. I realise it would be hard to help me with this problem if the correct engine type isnt known but hopefully once I find that out someone might be able to give me advice about the starter.

I had it reconed in the summer and was hoping that it might be sorted but the boat didnt start yesterday but with a bash to the starter it did so it looks like the starter problems are starting again (or not lol)

Anyway helloand thanks in advance
