^ Update, I looked out the PC con rod yesterday.
Its in good condition, and even comes with fair condition STD piston and rings. Piston rings may be good to go again if carefully cleaned up, as I tried them in a Petter AC1 cylinder barrel (also 3" bore) and the ring gaps looked acceptable.

The con rod also has a set of big end shells which are also in reasonable condition. Only problem is they are -0.010" undersize. Let me know if your interested via PM.

I sent you a PM. Thanks for keeping an eye out for me!

I am missing the connecting rod cap for this engine, as well as the bearing... anyone have an extra connecting rod or a source for something that will work? ( something with a 2" crank pin and 3" stroke). I also need a piston, as mine is cracked

Thanks!

Thank you! It has been purchased and is on the way! Just a few more pieces and I can start trying to get this engine assembled and running.

I'll send you a message. Making one from aluminum should be too hard as I have a lathe. I'll just need to know dimensions. I'm missing everything, so I'll need nozzle and all.

It appears I can buy a complete injector assembly for a PH/AV here in the states for an affordable price. Once I get the engine in the shop and figure out what all I need, I'll add it to my list! https://www.ebay.com/itm/Fuel-Injector-For-Petter-318862-130S26C175P3-PH-HL-PHW-AV-AVA-/153544769353?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0

Thank you for the information. I have reached out to Mr. Perkins, but have had no response after several attempts.

I really appreciate the insight and information you have provided as that will give me some options of what to look for. I unfortunately, the entire injector and shroud are missing. I'll have to order an aluminum unit to use with my engine and machine it to fit.

Too bad your parts engine was short the injector parts!

sorry i can't help with the parts problem, but dang that is one cool little tractor!
and the rubber looks great!

so many old small tractors that survive around here have rubber that is so cracked and weather checked it is amazing that air isn't forced in from the outside.

good luck getting the old girl up and running again.

One of the previous owners added new rubber to make it easy to move about. Then, it's been stored inside ever after.

I am new here and recently acquired a Crawley 75 tractor that is powered by a Petter PC1 diesel engine. Unfortunately, the injector was removed by a previous owner and lost to time. The piston is currently out, and needs rings. I understand that rings from a PAZ1 will work?

Does anyone here know of an alternative injector that will work/be close for a PC1? Or perhaps of a used injector available for this engine?




Thank you!
