Hi all slowly getting it to bits .  It's looking much better .. but
I have found a loose crankshaft timing gear . I did not want to take out the crankshaft but it looks like it will have to come out to fix the timing gear I suspect it will have a worn out key . Not looking forward to getting it out . I only have one shoulder that works properly .  I am thinking of remove flywheel and putting it on it's end and pulling out the crankshaft with the forklift . It's big and ugly .  What do you think about this . 

Great job .  Just about put me to sleep

I don't think they are plated . So I assume that there are different rings to go with them. Something to look into ... Hard bore soft rings. Soft bore hard rings .. thanks to all . 

Hi all anyone know the difference in liners from a cs and a jp
 I can get cs liners. But not had any luck getting some for the jp . It's getting cleaner .. have the heads off . The liners might go again . There is lots of carbon . So much the valves are not seating . The ports are full .. not sure why . Time will tell
 

Hi all anyone have an idea how much oil is in a jp3 ? The industrial version ? I have found the plug near the oil pump . I am not looking forward to pulling the plug. . there looks like a big mess coming up .

Just finished a ronaldson and tippet ck twn cylinder 27 hp diesel .. now for my next project . Lister JP3 !  It's a bit sad but will endavour to put a smile back on .  It's an industrial engine . It will require a few bits .  Liners and pistons maybe .  I am still assessing the bits .  I might c it I can use some listeroid liners but will c .  Thank God I have a machine shop . It's going to need some help . I have been scraping the oil of the outside looking for the sump plug !  Still looking . Got to there somewhere !!! Anyway back to the filth hellow to all
