Resurrection of a Lister 12/2
sirpedrosa:
Hello everyone
Following Tiger's advice, here's a new 12/2 topic.
This Sunday was a day to visit the old machine. (Acquisition under discussion) Due to not deteriorate much more, it was all sprayed with WD40 - for now - I will experiment later on the ATF / acetone.
Bad news are: the whole system of governor seized with rust;
a fuel pump element seized with rust;
the two intake Tappets seized with rust.
All this at the first glance.
It's going to be a lot of work.
I kindly ask to anyone in this forum the 12/2 manual in pdf format.

I forgot,
Is missing also the return fuel line (was stolen cut, due the copper/brass), and the starting handle is somewhere that the owner don't remember.
Best Regards
Sirpedrosa

Hey Sirpedrosa,
What a great project. I think the twin is the best looking of all the Listers. You've come to the right spot for informed guidance. (Not me, I'm just a Lister fan boy.)
Best Wishes,
Casey
I'm thinking you should be careful around paint you want to remain with the 50/50 release stuff.

Hello Casey,
I recognize the 12/2 is a little beast (above 500kg), but this project means at lest to preserve history of my toddler time, as I had spent countless hours earring that POP/POP in my birth village.
But a single does't get out of my mind. One at time.
Please clarify me about that recipie of ATF/Acetone issues.
