Engines / SR2 Crank Case Pressure
« on: March 08, 2022, 04:38:31 PM »
My SR2 started to blow oil from the D rings between the Head and the opening for the rods/ fuel pipes etc. I disassembled and reassembled the head making sure the seals were in good order and clamped everything back down accordingly. Starting is good. A small oil patch is still weeping out in the same area on both head joints. Talking to the helpful chap from Lister spares.co.uk he said it might be pressure in the crank case caused by warn piston rings. When I take one of the caps off that expose the decompression arm I can feel air blowing out. Do any of you gurus have a take on this. Cheers.

Engines / Fuel Leak off SR2
« on: March 21, 2021, 11:00:52 AM »
I threaded the nut that connects the leak off pipe to its Injector. Need a new leak off pipe assembly. There's one at half the price but the outlet is stern side instead of bow. The assembly output is connected to a 'T' that sends a feed back to the tank and also to the filter outlet. Is the filter outlet feed necessary. If not I can get the stern side one and couple the tank return which is easy as it's flexible hose and blank off the coupling to the filter outlet which would involve more work.

Original Lister Cs Engines / Bad vibrations
« on: May 09, 2020, 05:04:06 PM »
Hello everyone. Just joined. My SR2 sits in my narrowboat in Parbold on the Leeds/Liverpool. It's had work done on the top end and starts well. The problem is it vibrates a lot and being fastened tightly to the chassis it vibrates everything else too. the vibrations even out at certain revs and are more pronounced at others. Is this a characteristic or a fault somewhere. Your opinions will be eagerly received.
