Original Lister Cs Engines / Resurrection of a Lister 12/2 - A sibling spotted (lets see)
« on: May 21, 2021, 11:50:50 PM »
Hi Gentles

A few time ago I was told a very rusty iron still seated on a field.

Today I made a divert of... 200km to see it.

I think it looks worse than it is... off course its seized! I was told its seated under weather since my spotter remembers!

Couldn't make any better pics, because there was a shepherd dog warning me that was its place.

Anyway, ill try to fetch it.

Petteroids / PETTER - PAZ1 - New project - tweaking the hilux time belt and IP
« on: April 23, 2021, 11:19:19 PM »
Hi Gentles

My apologies to not share in last post some TLC to my latest acquisition, a Hilux 1992, that needed to tweak the injection pump (spill time was set a beat early, making it to sound a dry knock).

To pull out crank pulley I made some basic tools from "NASA's" plans, in order to reach the timing belt.

A few pics to enjoy...

General Discussion / Re: Engine identification Lister-Petter HR2
« on: April 11, 2021, 12:29:33 PM »
Hi Chris

I think Cobba pin the point, and if you have a micro budget, dont jeopardize it. An HR (2, 3, 4 or 6) are direct injection and high RPM.

LEF members that uses WMO or WVO has low RPM engines Lister CS or listeroids, and thoes "fuels" need fine filtering, centrifuge to separate water, mixing to start and even heating to flow better.

Do you really need 10 KW? or 5 or 3 is sufficient?

Just a few cent to the rant!

General Discussion / Re: Engine identification SR2 or LR2 or LD2 or SL2

Hi Chris

Yes Metalurgica Duarte Ferreira was a Portuguese farm equipment manufacturer, colonial war army trucks and other machinery  and a Lister importer from England, for PT market.

Just scratch the paint around and you will find ID plate.

Usualy "marineized" engines are engines that are originaly air cooled and modified to water cooled.

Petteroids / PETTER - PAZ1 - PETTER - PAZ1 - Gantry (A frame) crane... Flaw detected, bravo.
« on: March 21, 2021, 10:58:41 AM »
Hi gentles, and specially Bruce

Thanks Bruce for identifying the Z axis flaw.

Take a look for the solution I'm preparing, I will do the locking between the beam extension and the legs. (extension protrudes 0,5m inside, and out of the beam).

Off course it will need more improvements, but it will get somewhere!

Stay all safe.

General Discussion / Re: Destroying a 1 cylinder diesel.....because they are stupid
« on: March 13, 2021, 09:29:45 AM »
Gentles

Its not a matter of opinion, it's a fact... and against facts there are no arguments.

A few time ago lots of morons had destroy statues, ISIS destroyed monuments and churches. the ignorance or more the stupidity is the mother of all disgraces.

Just my few cents.
