Engines / Museum Lister D problems
« on: April 29, 2021, 12:21:06 PM »
Hi all.
I'm quite new here and to the world of lister in general.
I'm trying to get a museums lister D to work.
I've tried all sorts of ideas I've seen on the internet but cannot seem to get it running. I managed somehow to get it running for 10 minutes yesterday before I stopped it. But cannot get it running again.
We've got a new Champion D16 spark plug in which sparks nicely but sometimes doesn't when touching the engine. This could be an issue but I don't know enough on the electrical side of engineering to solve it.
The carburettor and float chamber have been stripped and cleaned up.
I'm running out of ideas quite frankly
The engine plate is shown as
N° - 1/18489
Spec - 28 DH
H.P - 1 1/2
RPM - 700
Any help will be appreciated.
