Engines / wristpin/piston/connecting rod fit
« on: September 04, 2006, 03:01:50 AM »
 Upon disassembly  I found the piston to have clearance slop , and the wrist pin was pulled out from the piston with my little finger :o    the wristpin put in the rod had slop ,  and when I put the wristpin in one side of the piston it had slop ,,and when I put it in the other side it was nice and tight .......this would account for the knocking noise when the engine  was test run by me   .......  also when I tryed to push the wristpin through the piston ,the loose side was ok till it got to the other side ..the bore is off a little ..like who ever drilled it did one side and fliped in over and drilled the other side   :-\ >:(  is this normal for this type of engines?/  auto engines I have rebuilt have been nice and tight.this is my first diesel engine to go through    yes i am hooked on it now.  I got lister fever   WRIGHTKILLER

This is what happened to me ..I was moving the cylinder from the top of the crankcase to the work bench ,on the way over to it I triped and fell forward just at the bench,the cylinder just did land on the bench,  but hit with enough force to push the piston sleeve up and about 1/8 of an inch. I have tryed to get it back in but no luck as of yet..  tryed a 4x4 and hammer... rubber mallett..

Brand new Stationary Metro Lister clone engine 6/1 model. 6 HP at 650 RPM, 1 cylinder ,water cooled. 2" Shaft. Liner type engine with Indirect Injection, which is a great choice for burning Waste veg. Oil. These are a nice tough old style engine. Very simple - exposed push rods, fuel pumps and injectors. Has slightly under 2' Flywheels. You need to supply cooling water tank, uses thermosiphon - no cooling water pump. Has Taper Roller Bearing mains. About 1200 #. Flywheel is machined for serpintine belt, which drives the 4 kW 1800 RPM generator end. 110/220 Volt. Wires are pigtailed from generator end for you to hook up to your breaker. Comes in kit form - Engine, generator and welded steel frame. You will need bolts and lock nuts to bolt to frame. Figure on 8 - 12 hours to get all set up. Serpintine belt and generator end serpintine sheeve are included. You will need a good mechanical background to run this engine. They need to be tended to, if you just want some back up power you will likely be better off with a Home Depot/Lowes generator. Also have engines available. 1200.00 ea.
