Hello all, new to this forum. Great forum!!!  I wish I'd found it a long time ago. Have a Lister SR2 with a 10 KW head, that I uses for my off grid home in Ontario Canada, works great. But after seeing an old Witte genset on the net...will you know :-) anyways is there any running in Ontario? haven't ever seen any (only on the net) ...maybe , mostly in the Western provinces of Canada?
Keep up the great work!! And thanks for letting me join the forum.
Cheers

Thanks for the replies, not looking at changing parts ...the lower door..etc. Love it as is , just thought if there was a spin on oil filter I'd give it a try, but the old way, works for me too :-).
I see ( last night) that it is leaking a little oil around the two side doors, have to order some new gaskets.

Hello everyone, This is my first posting here at the Lister engine form. First up, thanks you very much, for letting me join this forum!! :-)
Hope to make a lot of new friends that have the same interests as I do...any thing old and slow LOL just like me!!
Anyways I bought a Lister SR2 engine about 3 years ago, it was used as a air compressor/starter for a much larger diesel generator. Very low hours, was just started every month for inspection and always service etc.( government facility). I took the air compressor off and put a 10 KW generator head directed coupled (double chain coupler system). The governor is set at 1800rpm . The gen head I bought(new) is a four pole head. Everything works great!! I live off grid and have had gas gensets for about 5 years, was saving my Lister for the new house, but about three weeks ago my last gas gen , went out of service. So instead of buying a new gas gen, I put the Lister into service. WOW should have done it years ago!!Uses 1/3 or a little less of diesel fuel an hour.
My question is  what problem (normal problem) should I be looking for, what happens normal to these motors. It has the electric starter motor (works great) and that's about it.
Also it has a oil filter inside a steel case on the outside of the engine, is it replaceable with a spin on filter (auto) type, and if not, does anyone have a part number for a replacement filter. I've put about 20 hour on the motor since it was put into service, three weeks ago.And would like to do an oil change, and filter and inspection soon.
I'm in Ontario Canada, so part might be hard to find?? I don't really know.
Thanks for looking and looking forward to responses from a group that will know a lot more then me.
Cheers
Brian
